Martin's latest chop of my GTI:

Me likeee

Anthracite Interlagos are the future (on lighter colour cars anyway). Gonna keep mine silver though until a kerb a couple at least.
Funny how this thread started on the subject of Pescaras, it's odd how some wheels you think will look really good on a GTI just don't end up cutting the mustard and others that you're not sure of dig their way into your heart (for those of us that have one). For all the people that critisized VW for staying with the Monza design when they facelifted the mk5, you can see that they must have thought long and hard about the style of the wheels combined with the style of the car as an overall package and stuck with a theme that still just seemed to work well together. As this thread proves, alternative wheels can and do suit a MK6 GTI, but not all styles work. The Interlagos look better on a mk6 than a mk5 and the Pescaras work the other way round. And that's Friday's sermon over and done with brothers and sisters.
