My alloys - opinions please
« on: 14 August 2009, 19:48 »
Hi Guys,

I recently purchased my Gti Mk3 8v and it came with these wheels.......they are Boss 17inch alloys and although I'm vaguely familiar with the make they are just not my cup of tea.....what do you guys think?.....am I just being a plonker or should i go for some BBS VR6 ones i'm currently craving for?...opinons please.
