well as for make orig vw wheels take some beating!!!! other than that bbs/oz etc are far superior wheels to other brands but you will pay more!! its all down to personal taste!! chose some wheels you like get vw badges for the centres job done!! some people say certain brands of wheels are crap, ive got 17" fox evo 1's on mine and there bob on (apart from wifey scuffs!!) and they were only ?350!! so you get what you pay for theres plenty of wheels out there to choose from, try ebay for a browse to see what second hand bargins are available as theres always some good deals on there!!! ;D ;D

If you like 18'S and want good stuff do as i have and put on some audi tt wheels. Drop it 35 mm and it looks the db's. also get a revo remap for about ?500 it will change your car into a hot hatch instead of a under powered jelly!!!!!!! ::)

I thought that when I got my 180bhp GTI.
I soon had it Revo'ed with the 4 bar software, added a Miltek catback exhaust, Dynatwist Induction Kit and a Forge DV with a set of Koni coilovers being fitted this Saturday.
Now its fast enough with some great handling to come (I hope).

Unless you hadn't noticed bellend, KR has two Golfs (with a 3rd not too far away), which puts him closer to the 3 Golfs thing than you will ever be. His cars can actually be seen in the metal, whereas yours can only be seen in your (albeit little) mind.

I have grasped the notion that you are not a partciularly intelligent person (via your grammar, spelling, expectation that we swallow your feeble attempts at lying etc) but one would assume that you would posses enough intelligence to grasp the fact that everyone here thinks you are a c*nt.

Surely you have enough self respect to take this on-board and disappear before you cause yourself further embarrasment?
