What wheels are the best on mk2's...
« on: 16 March 2009, 13:33 »
So, what do you guys think?? I think 5-star soft spokes looks the dogz, but am thinking of possibly a change



I do like the BBS's, but it's just the fact that everyone has them...may have to give in tho...

So what's your favs?? Back it up with pictures

I like those 5 spokes. They suit the car. But my choice would be ATS cups. Unfortunately they don't fit the G60 as the brakes are too big. :sad:

you get to a point where you dont care and a quick jetwash is all the cleaning they get

they still look awesome with dirty spokes and pitted lips though!

RA's for me too on a daily.

Once you have got them clean, they are easy. A soft paint brush works a treat.

They do look a little bit pinched though, espeacially the rears which could do with spacing out a bit.

I'm thinking of these for by 1990 Oak Green for sunday best

Red Mk6 gone replaced with a white Mk7 which has gone too. Green Mk2 here to stay.
