Still looking around for some alloys and came across these.

Has anyone got a similar set up?

I much prefer them to those Phaeton alloys - Much more dynamic in appearance. What's wrong with the BBS's on the Ed30? They're a classic and far sportier looking - The Phaeton is pipe n slippers! [All in my opinion, etto etc etc]

I'm with you 182, when I saw them I thought he was joking then when I looked at them on the car :drool:

I dunno, as a standard alloy I think they looked OK on the MK4.

....Most definitely. But standard alloys rarely look better than "OK". Mk5 Monza and Ed30 alloy are exceptional imo.
