I'm suprised at the fact that only one other person other than me has voted 14s? :o
come on theres got to be more than the two of us who enjoy a golf with the proper size wheels don't be embarassed? ;)
with 14s you get better handleing ,quicker acceloration due to the weight of the wheels ,cheaper tyres and longer lasting ball joints? :D

and only 29 people have wheels now? :o


no way can you get cheaper tyres for 14's, unless they are 185 14 60 or some sh!t like that, besides theres nothing wrong with 15's with 45 tyres on

have you weighed your heavy arsed 15s and a 14 ?   ::)

so did vw fit the wrong sized wheels and tyres ? to the car they designed ... you know the hot hatch that they wanted the best for...


"does it annoy you that no-ones bothered to tell you what size wheels they use or something?"
nope not at all but it tells me something about this boards users  ;)  :P
