Picked up Carbon Grey ED35 yesterday

[mkviken]

nice car

but why are all these ed35's being spec'd  with optional wheels instead of the 'proper' 35 wheels?

if i bought a special edition i'd want to keep the right wheels on. you can get a GTD with them wheels on so!


thats the best colour though looks great.

I thort you could only get the std seattles or opt charlestons on the GTD?

hmmm dunno but there was a red one on a display ramp with the wheels on at a local dealers around the time i bought my GTI

either way they're available on other models so at a glance you mightn't know its an ed35

Have to say I second that, but I would...given that I'm getting the standard 18s. In my opinion they suit the car and image of the GTI, slightly understated look.

I agree you can get the 19s on a standard GTI so if it was me I would get one of the two 18 sets.
Each to there own though.

I've been looking for a piccy of a carbon grey GTi with black wheels as I was considering black ones when I get round to affording a new set (the Mk2's temporarily put paid to that plan) and this confirms that they'll suit well. Nice combo with the grey.

Having said that, I'm really not a fan of those silver tips although I'll reserve my final judgement until I've seen them in real life.

Congratualtions, that car looks stunning. I think thats the best colour on the GTI for me.

Lovely car, i get what people are saying about the wheels being available on other models but they have grown on me and i bet they look even better in the flesh and on the move, personally i think id still pick the 18"s as im aproaching 40 and they are a bit less in your face but thats just me. Great colour and car.
