Tempted to buy a genuine used set of Mk5 R32 I've seen alloys for the GTI. Anyone done this or got pictures of these wheels on a Mk6?
(MK5 R32 18" ALLOYS. 7.5J X 18". ET51 VW PART NO: VW 1K0 601 025 AD)

I fancy a little project and thought they might look good on the car refurbed in anthracite or gloss black?

Opinions please..... ya or na?

Thanks guys ( and girls )   :smiley:

I don't think they look special enough on the Mk6

Neil, what's the yellow car in your garage with the black bonnet.... looks like some sort of Jap track car?

+1 an Anthracite / gun metal finish would be the way to go with the R32's wheels on the mk6. I really like the style of the wheels ( although I bet there F*ckers to clean )  :smiley:
