They look good but also look diamond cut on the outer edge to me?

Not too sure to be honest, I thought it was a rim protector like the BBS alloys have now.

Side note my friend that bought my old BBS grazed them and said "Those rim protectors are the best thing invented, I'm surprised manufacturers aren't pursuing this idea and flogging them every service.

Felgenoutlet.com website describes them as being ‘Gloss black diamond cut’ - link below;

Rimstyle.com website also describes then as ‘Gloss Balck with Polished Rim’ (aka diamond cut);

Just checked out the Oz Racing website - Oz Veloce GT don’t seem to be available in any other colour / finish, so sadly, it looks as if they all have a diamond cut rim.

Shame, that being said my local Alloy Refurbishers are happy to do blow in repairs so I'd imagine it wouldn't cost too much to get it redone in gloss black.

Wrong bolt pattern.

You need 5 x 112 for the Golf. Polo wheels are 5 x 100.
Polo wheels won’t fit.

Ahhhh my mistake. I just assumed they’d be 5x112 too :grin: thanks guys !!

If you're wanting to go down to 18's I'd personally go for the painted Sevilla alloys imo they're the nicest 18in alloy for the golf.

With respect Sir, I disagree...  :cool:



Belvederes do look good :grin:

They don't do different colours in the Veloce GT but they do in the Omnia which is very slightly different but it is also a lightweight alloy at 8.9kg
