any opinions on some new alloys??
« on: 10 October 2005, 20:48 »
just wondered if anyone has some opinions for a new set of alloys for my mk2. its a gti 16v totally standard, the bodywork is near mint but the alloys are in bad shape. the lacquer is peeling on near enough all of them  :cry: and i was wondering what you guys would do? refurb the old alloys or buy a new set of 15s??
any suggestions or pictures welcome.

ATS Cups look nice on a low car.

anything of the period would look cool. bbs always look good on mk 2's but can be expensive, keep it simple i'd say, flashy modern wheels look out of place on old cars.

what do you think of wolfrace Voodoo II?

Golf MKII wheel spec. 4X100 PCD et 35mm. would et38mm still fit or the wheels have to be with et35mm?

Don't they say 'VOODOO' down one of the spokes?  :undecided:

yes, voodoo is engraved on one of the spokes.

i would go for BBS if i can afford it.

i think they look cool, they are featured in Max Power modifying manual (16" dia.)
