Idea's for new Alloys
« on: 17 December 2006, 22:26 »
Hi Guys,
What wheels look good on a Mk3 8 Valve, Dragon Green 5 Door?
I have been looking at some BBS and the Audi RS4's (old models).
I have a 06 Audi A3 Sportback 2.0Tdi with the new RS4 18" and have tried them against my Gti but dont look that great :undecided:
Any ideas welcome.
Thanks again.

Hi Bulk66,
By the way what are these??? Are they Audi TT or the Mk4 Golf V5???
They do look smart......
If you dont mind me asking how much did you pay for them???
Thanks again :wink:

personally , i think chunkier looking wheels look better on mk3's , like Bulk's.

how about 16" A3 1.8 T alloys

I am a big fan of polished bbs multispoke's (with a bit of dish for that wide euro look)...15's are good but 16's are better with a 7 or 8" width.. i have driven a few mk3's with 17's and personally I don't like the feel of them.
