So are the Black Monza's available from my Local Dealer or would they need to be purchased from some where else?

I believe the wheels you want are called Rockinghams.

Accordingly to Ollieb7 they are dealer available but at a price! Not sure if they cost more than Monza 2s??

They are both lovely rims! I deffinatley prefare the Monza 2's (18") over the Monza (17") as they look soooo different even thou the design of the rim is the same! As much as i want the Monza's in Black im having doubts as it my make the car look abit dull or boring, not to sure! Iv ordered the Eibach Pro Kit, should be on its way just need to make a choice on rims now....Either the Monza's in Black, Monza 2's or these HRE rims iv seen on a website...Comments Please!

I've just bought a GTi and had the dealer fit the 18" Monza II's to it before picking it up. Seems alright to me, however it did breakdown with a coilpack failure 200 miles after picking it up. So it seems the dealer is talking tosh - no mods needed to the suspension but watch out for those coilpacks ! (only joking  :evil:)

I'd go with the HRE rims, IMHO, the black Monza's don't do it and look too flat and dull :shocked:.

HRE rims look better IMO :cool:

If you do decide on them you will need a day out to clean the by the looks of it :rolleyes:

Rials look sweet too, but with both rims I'd watch out for the dreaded laquer flake effect :sick:
