I can only think the alloys are an old back log of stock. I wouldn't imagine the alloys are rep's but who know's with dealers these days.

It sounds like a great deal though (one which I never seem to stumble upon down my way  :cry:). What other alloys did they have out of interest. Did they have any 18" black detroit monza's for sale?



They were definitely reps as I asked the guy serving me.
Most of their alloys were certainly current. Monza's, Talladega, BBS rep Black, other Talladega but a slightly different shape to where the 3 spokes met the rim of the wheel.

I quite like the Serrons on the GTI Adidas Edition - http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_FoXyvaPSnVk/S-wSNryO3sI/AAAAAAAC1rE/beNfaEzK0Ik/s1600/VW-Golf-GTI-Adidas-9.JPG

and the photoshopped alloys on this look very risque for VW, but I like  :kiss:

They are from the R8 V10   :evil: :evil:   Must be very expensive.  They come in the right size though as I want to fill my arches without lowering the car for now as it will be used as a family vehicle - the wife put up with the Bilstein PS9s in my Ed30 for 2 years, but if I put aftermarket suspension on the Mk6 as well... :shocked:  8.5J and 235 width should just about fit with a small amount of arch rub at full lock I think.

These wheels really fill out the arches nicely and give the car a purposeful stance. They remind me of my 3-year-old's squashed and half-broken Hotwheels cars :grin:

I think those wheels are growing on me... they look great!! That first picture that shows off the sunroof is also a great shot. I do like them in Silver but a slightly off silver (darker) colour would possibly look good too. :cool:
