Wheels For My Mk3 , Ideas ?
« on: 24 March 2011, 21:10 »
Rightt ive dropped the car , Now looking at running a set of wheels
But having trouble working out what will look good , Ideally i want a bit of a dish , polished lip and stretched tyre over it
I was looking at the lenso bsx ? whats the dish like ?
Or a set of  BBS RA ?
The price is no issue so any suggestions ?
Currently running the stock ones : (

I would avoid Lensos. RA's would be a good choice.

'price not an issue'

why the hell would you fit ra's if price wasnt an issue..

at the end of the day its your taste so you may not like what people suggest, best thing to do is just look through pics of mk3's of various rims..

Look up autostrada monzas they are lovely.

Audi winters look awesome too.

For a more sensible option I'd go for something Porsche, cookie cutters look epic.
