2018 MY Changes.............

I really don't like those wheels. Far too fussy IMO and would be a nightmare to clean. Look a bit aftermarket to me - not at all GTI good taste. 

You've hit the nail on the head there. They really do look aftermarket.

I for one am glad that these wheels are available beacause the standard Parker wheel is a disgrace

The parker wheels are terrible but these aren't much better imo. They look "after market" and not in a good way. Anyone else thinking "A-Team" van?

... so you keep saying. I agree their are better looking alloys, but Parker alloys are going to be on my new car. You insult my alloys, you insult my car. You insult my car, you insult me.

Not sure about the red ring round these wheels but given there isn't a lot of cost difference between these and the 19" Brescias it would be a simple decision for me to go 19s.

They come with much better tyres too. Unfortunately, where I live in the countryside, 19inch alloys would be an uncomfortable mistake.

Any pics of the new gti alloys?

This is the German Graphite version. Does anyone else think "Transformers - robots in disguise."


BTW if you sang into yourself, "Transformers - robots in disguise!" You are showing your age 

FFS, I totally sang that, and then read your comment haha

Sorry mate, didn't mean to offend and it is only my worthless opinion so just ignore me
PS
Is it too late to change your order?

Will be placing my order as soon as the GTI Performance becomes available. Will not be ordering 19 inch alloys due to crap roads where I live.

It is your opinion and you are entitled to it. However, using words like ugly, terrible, horrendous and a disgrace - is a bit strong. In a recent poll here - it would appear that 2/3 of people are happy enough with the Parker alloys. Only 1/3 ordered 19 inch alloys.
