wheels - something different?

[4ThoseWhoLike2]

hi to all

was just thinking about getting a new set of rims, but dont want to go down the a8 route, if you know what i mean!

as my car is navy blue, i was thinking about black rims, anyone with any recommendations, pics or links...

fyi, the suspension is not lowered, in fact the car is stock.

what car is it?

oh yeah - sorry bout that - thought i entered this in the mk4 section.

its a 99 1.8t 20v 150bhp 5 door gti - see my dub gallery...

not sure that black wheels would work on a blue car tbh. Stick with something shiny and understated

some black wheels look gud on a blue car..
best thing to do is get a side profile of ur car, the wheels your after, and photoshop it..or ask one of the lads on here to do it for you..

thanks for the comments guys.

thanks for the suggestion dinx - i have a proile pic in my dub gallery.

i know jack about what type of rims, offsets and the like i should be looking out for?

its all new to me.

[Dinky]

well basically..you choose a wheel you like and and look you want and go from there..
because depening on your wheel size (17s?)/type, you may need to change your suspension and wot not..
as for offset..ask joe or jv..or toph!
