think i like that, for a quick photoshop!

I think you'll need to run lots of camber to get the wheels to look right, but they are some stunning wheels. :eek:

Wayn0r · 29 Jul 2007 at 21:44

andf nother.

BigglesPiP · 29 Jul 2007 at 21:46

Suits it fine, you're only a bad person if the offset is wrong.

lordrobs · 29 Jul 2007 at 21:47

I think in the fitment you'd need they would be a little less "dishy"

Not sure if I like that or not tbh. Certainly eye catching.

the photoshop is crap, the wheels look way to big in one respect.

But, think thats just swayed it for me, they look the dogs i reckon. just hope theyre not gonna come to around £500 a corner

I like the normal wheels already on it but i also really like the new ones too!

DanTheMan · 29 Jul 2007 at 22:08

I actually prefer the wheels that are on at the moment.

Wouldn't say no to the seats though

Those wheels may possibly not fit even if you can find them in an appropriate PCD and offset size. Unfortunately, we're very restricted on what wheels we can put on on account of the offset and the brake caliper clearance. Anything remotely dishy like those won't fit without spacers, where you then have the problem of pushing the wheel out of the arch, which is a real pity because I like the deep dish look myself.

I agree with you on the CH front, becoming very popular, although they do look pretty good, especially in 19"s.

I thought I'd found a winner in the BBS CKs recently, then found they don't do them in 5x100 PCD in 19" (although they do in 18"), so curses!

Provided it suits the car, is high quality and looks good, who gives a stuff where its from?

Those wheels (ignoring the ***** multi-fitment centres) only work because of the dish. To roll that dish on the R32 you will need to pull and roll the arches and fit some nicely stretched rubber. I'd like to see them 10j rear and 9j front...18" diameter. 225 section front and back.

ORRRRR You can go the whole nine yards and fit F2 arches which could work pretty well. Expensive though - about 2k plus fitting (steel arches).

As nice are the wheels are, I get the sinking feeling that you will end up compromising their looks to get them to fit easily.

Do you know what PCD they are? I have a feeling that they will be 5x114.3 and 5x108 for some reason...

deffo do it

those wheels definately suit the car. probably because they having a passing resemblance to the originals (being thin multispokes, rather than 3 spoke 6 spoke etc..)

ive already checked, and i can get them to fit the golf. 5x100, 57.1 bore, +38 offset. They do other offsets but im just checking to see what offset the standard calipers can take.

dont think i could afford to run 19's, the way i go through tyres, it cost me a fortune on the st220 with 19's on.
