Monzas
« on: 19 August 2013, 20:40 »
Are the standard Monza rims the same as shadows? The stock rims on GTDs are pony and im going to keep an eye out for having a set of monzas re furbed .Lepsoms the best @ 260 plus vat for refurb? They've done my RS4 wheels and they were good but not perfect.

Monza 2's from the MK5 are not the same as the Monza Shadows on the MK6.

Main difference is the black inserts which make the wheel look sharper.

How about a set of 19's:

The normal silver finish Monza's are only 17" mate, the shadows from the mk6 are 18's as are the Monza 2's from the mk5 although the open parts on the 2's is grey but black on the shadows if that makes sense?  :smug:

It's possible that people have refurbished Monza 2's to have black inserts if you're looking at used sets for sale.

MK5 GTI - Monza II 18 inch wheel (Silver all over)

MK6 GTI - Monza Shadow 18 inch wheel (Black inserts)
