One thing i've learned is that wheels or rims, is very personal :) What you think is awsome other might think look terrible. Me for instance, i have 15 inch Corrado speedline (same as the GTI edition had). Love them, since they reminds so much about Compomotive MO5.

Look around, google pictures, thats the best advice i can give you :)

16x9 schmidt modernlines et20.

Needs a lot of arch work but they look the best in my eyes.

Get the 3 piece splits if ya can. I had them on mine and with stainless steel lips they are very easy to look after.

Heres mine.

there was a wheel appreciation thread made. Search for that.
