What about these alloys?
« on: 01 December 2008, 22:25 »
Was looking at the VW site and spotted these alloys:

What does everyone think?
I quite like them  :smiley:.
Not low enough mk5
Not on the road enough mk3

I wouldnt disagree as I think they are quite a nice wheel. Just means that your kind of trying to copy another cars style in a sense. I see the reasoning behind sticking to VW wheels though :smiley: How about the Pirelli's??

I've not seen them in the flesh so its hard to comment but from pics I think the Monzas and Pescaras are much much nicer than the Ps, all imo of course.
