17" or 18" Alloy Options?
« on: 05 March 2004, 12:34 »
 I am looking for a set of 17" or 18" (Pref 17") for my 3 door Mkiv GTI.

 Can anyone suggest some options or even better post some pictures of the car with the wheels fitted?

Thanks

Have a look in the gallery, mate - I know Starry and Kniterider have got nice alloys on their mk4s, but I'm sure there's many others too.

Let me know what you get.  I'm saving up for some new ones too.  ;)

18's all the way, try a set of super t's if you can hold of them, set of anniversary alloys or a set of r32 wheels,

yeah i agree a set of the r32 ones are the dogs or even the bbs rc's are nice if you have the dough.  i went for a set of 17 rs4's the only thing that stopped me getting 18's was i was going to have to run a 40 tyre and i done that with my last car (so bloody sore) i dont drive on the best roads to work you see.

There's some fox alloys that look similar to the R32 ones.

Saw some for about a grand (incl. tyres) in Halfords today.

For spanking new VW and Audi wheel replicas, check this out.  Not bad prices.
