I've decided to splash out on a set of BBS CS5 in polished anthracite, think they will look nice with the deep black of my GTI.

If you are, where are you getting them from?
Why do you always arrive so late? I am just about to go to bed.  :kiss:

Decided? as in you're just about to order? or as in you'll get them soon?


Love the CS-5 by the way, my choice for sure.

Going to try Rimstyle as I think they are the cheapest.  10.30 is not that late Asker, I see you were on here at silly o'clock the other night/morning.  Do you reckon I can push them down on the price a bit? :kiss:

Will try and order within the next month, do you reckon anthracite will look good on black or should I go with silver.  I perefer the CS-5 to the CKs even though they are a bit dearer. :undecided:

Gizzy, read the thread. I have negotiated an excellent price with Performance alloys. They are always the cheapest. You will need to have the CS-5s machined by BBS to change the ET form 40 to 45. This will cost an extra £60.
As for the colour, it's personal. I would go for Silver for Bonnie. AGB has, for his black car.
Goodnight.  :kiss:

I'm in three minds, a week ago I wanted antracite, then black and now I've nearly decided on silver as I noticed that the silver is 5 spokes are polished and the others are matt style.

Jim:
It's for that very reason I prefer the Silver.  :wink:
