It would have been the RIGHT choice!  :kiss:

P.S. This lowered candy white GTI in the pictures I just don't like. The rims are awful!  :sick: :sick: :sick: Arabs and rappers like this type of rims... total bling  :sick: no finesse whatsoever. Even stock Peskaras look 10 times more sophisticated

The black one is great! Silver Detroits is what you SHOULD have on a black GTI, PERIOD! mmm  :tongue:


I have to say that I don't like aftermarket rims on Golf GTIs - very very few pull it off.  However, the white GTI in the photos is one of those exceptions I think as the alloys are BBS  :drool: :drool: :drool:   Although I agree they are quite shiny and 'in yer face' but hey, its BBS and its class.

I prefer Lorinser LM6. My absolute favourite silver rims. Saw them on a Benz, my goodness, mmmm  :drool: :drool: :drool: :shocked: :drool: :drool:

you are right, it is not allowed to go out with a bucket and a cloth on the street and do some Sunday cleaning.
I go to Best Carwash in Zurich. Nice place. Was there last saturday, and saw quite a number of  :drool:-cars there, including yellow Lambo Gallardo, blacked-out and tuned Porsche Turbo, MB AMG ML63, and a coupe of Mazeratis. Quite a number of tuned cars, especially Seats.
It is a nice place, they even have a 1000-litre aquarium thru which the recirculated water for the wash runs.

And in the evening, I was strolling downtown, and my hands were getting cold, but luckily a guy pulled up in his Ferrari, so when he parked and left I was able to warm my hands over Ferrari's engine bay's ventilation holes.  :laugh:

Here is the address, if you ever in Zurich:


 :smiley:

P.S. Only washed the car twice in the last 3 months, so one wash every 3500km  :nerd:
I had to wash it on Saturday because the back was getting really sh!tty, the sides were fine though.

I saw a photo of those silver Lorinzer rims on a black Golf V GTI. They looked great!
Personally, I am very very happy with my black Monzas (still keep looking at them in shop windows when I drive by  :kiss: :embarassed:).

definitely a pain on the road (there is no spring travel left), plus what Robin said - it does not handle so well probably.

....That's terrible!! Does that mean you can't handwash your car!? :sad: :sad: :sad: Drive-through carwashes are very bad for modern car paintwork :cry: :cry: :cry:.

The backs of our Golf hatchbacks always get dirty first.
