I think they're really nice rims BUT I've gotta say that due to them been black they really seem to exaggerate the whole vehicles ride height and wheel arch gap. I know you've said several times that you have no intention on lowering the suspension and i totally understand your reasoning behind this BUT it's crying out for it now mate. Sorry. :lipsrsealed:

Maybe but I am happy with it, to lower it would screw up what comfort it has.


They look like fake BBS CH, might be the ride height and stance, wheels are to tucked under

That is because they are fake (good quality reps)  :smiley:


i like that style rim as i nearly got some bbs for my vrs but in silver

Did not see the point in getting another set of silver rims.

No point in another set of silver rims, the black hides a good design, always think black looks ok on a monoblock style wheel, when a wheel is more open in design dark rims get lost, and i just think these look lost

I think it looks spot on Mate, and the best thing is...............................you like it :afro:

I prefer the Black CH's, I've seen them on Daz's Mk4 and in the flesh these look really nice with the satin finish  :cool:

Contemplated these for mine but got another set I've found that is ticking some other boxes for me  :wink:

Remapped today.  :grin:

Fook me it is bonkers when the boost comes in.

Going to try and get it on a rolling road soon to see what it is putting out.

If your in the South West I can highly recommend: Nathan @ http://www.wagenworx.co.uk/ excellent service :afro:

Love the wheels.  IMO needs a tiny drop to LOOK good but you're happy so...................

Did you get it on rollers before the map?
