MAW: They look fantastic. The car now looks like a racer. Love them in anthracite. Go for it. Brilliant. :smiley:

Cheers buddy for the nice comment... it makes them look not so rocco and maybe it make them suit the golf just a tiny bit more...  :smiley:

and now for Exonians car..... FrogGTI your not escaping this either  :grin:

They will suit all body colours. I really dig them! :smiley: They really suit a white car to perfection.
What's so nice is that they are no longer so-in-your-face.
Leave the bling to the Monza Shadows. :grin: They do that brilliantly.

Good effort there MAW73!
Looks better on your white car than on my silver (brake dust anyone?  :grin: ).
Mind you the black Huffs looked better on the white car than on my silver too. Maybe silver cars and black wheels don't go so well together.

Quick, have a look at this link, black painted Pescaras dead cheap and local to you too: http://www.mk5golfgti.co.uk/forum/index.php/topic,18208.0.html

Exonian, god know's how the hell I did it but after playing around in photoshop for hours I've somehow managed to anthracite the wheels.... What do you think?
Going to have a go at a picture of your car next.



Apologies if you don't like it FroGTI but I couldn't resist messing around in photoshop.... I love the colour of them in anthracite on your car. A bit more stealth and less bling!! What do you think?

Martin's latest chop of my GTI:


Me likeee  :smiley:

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.  :laugh:
