Title: Which Rims for a MK2???
Post by: 16v Matt on 12 May 2004, 15:26: Hi everyone, I've got a totally standard tornado red,big bumper gti. I need to get some rims,but not quite sure what to get. Gonna slam the car so don't want anything too big or too retro.

Any ideas or photos people ???

Cheers,
Matt.
