That looks great! Is that also the alloys from the accessories brochure?

Very similar to those wheels from the accessories brochure.  They are 18's in there though.

These are going on my shopping list!

Andy, I don't suppose you know what offset VWR are using on the mk7 wheels do you? I'm guessing ET45 but reckon the rears could get away with ET35 and I know the Germans are running 35mm on the rear.

And I don't suppose they hinted at when ECU software was being released did they?




As for those not familiar with VWR, yes those wheels are Team Dynamics Pro Race 1.2 wheels that VWR sell with the TD logos removed from the rim and the correct 57.1mm centre bore so you don't have to faff about with spigot rings.
I briefly ran a set on my last mk6 in 18" and they looked really good and were lighter than the BBSs that I had on there before.

They are very different to the accessory brochure wheels!
