I have seen wheels like yours with 225's on no way would i do that theres far too much of a stretch due to the wheel width.

You know what?
The 18" Monzas are great looking wheels but do not suit my Tornado Red GTi.
As I can't change the car or want to spend extra money on wheels, I just have to accept this sad situation or slash my wrists! But first I will check my life insurance policy!

PS: I know I have left myself wide open!


Vancouvers might be common but I think they look great with red.

I'd be interested to know what you guys think of these rep wheels???

I'm quite tempted as a winter set

Look nice, I reckon you'll have the same issues as me though, a bit 'sticky outy' and some tyre stretch.

One issue with this type of wheel when used in winter conditions is that it has a polished face just like the OEM Monza Shadows, and we all know what that leads to.

Those Omanyts look great don't they. I think they are 19'' reps though as they look quite big.  :cool:

They look a little bit too 'flat-faced' to be the 9x19 Phaeton wheel - might be the 8x19 optional on the Passat R36.
