Or just fit them with the winter tyres and fit them to one side of the car to allow photos to be taken.

Those alloys would look good on a golf in gloss back

My old Ed30 alloys still look good  :wink:
So do i but not at over £550 a wheel each new. Secondhand ones are not cheap either and 99.99% of them are damaged or repaired. When you can get BBS VZ for ~£150 a wheel and they look very similar to the VW pascara Ed30 wheels its hard to go for the unknown quantity/history thats the secondhand VW Pascara's.

Having just spent the last hour with my arse dangling in a puddle whilst scrubbing the entire surface of the A303 off my multi-spoked BBS wheels I can but offer this advice - buy 5 spoke alloys kids, they take 5 mins to clean and look nice.
Anyway CHs, Pescaras and VZ033s don't look right on mk6s. This car needs a wheel with spokes that go right to the edge thanks to the chunky bumpers that can loose some big alloys quite easily.
Even VW got the message and used a design on the ED35 with spokes that go right to the edges despite the fact that they still look too small.

Glendales are the future.  :tongue:
