I have Audi TT wheels (early type) on my 16v, but I'm a VAg/BBS whore so don't listen to me.  :grin:

In all seriousness now loving the jdm crossover style stuff at the mo. If you got yourself some gold dished mesh / honeycomb wheels with polished lip it would lookthe nads!

But yeah try and think outside the box - everyones repping D90's and borbet a's at the mo. I've got MGZR wheels on mine and haven't seen anyone else with em. Mainly because they have crazy offset and the centrebore was too small......

Bit off topic as they're steel not alloy but how about some Weller Motorsports (think old FF1600 wheels). White as standard which wouldn't look great but get them sprayed silver, satin black or, for a further twist, body colour. Could be something a bit different.

only come in 13's??? So won't fit over the calipers and will look odd in the arches. A mate has some 13 x 8's on his mk2 though and they look schweet

15"s on a low 3 do look the biz. White banded steels look good too, but heavy and can be pricey.
