my gti is coming off the road towards the end of the year to have plenty of work done, i have everything else sorted, now it's just what wheels to go for :/

i know it's my car and i can do what i like with it etc but i would like peoples opinions on which wheels are better :)

here's the pics of what the alloys look like:

Schmidt Modern Lines take my vote. I think 16" look slightly too big for a "euro style" 14" is just right, but nice wheels in 14" are rare!

partly agree, going to try order my wheels tomorrow and going with splits, so i can go wider if i ever want too.. like beaniemoo did on his rears. :y:
although i do still like single peice wheels..i do like the ronals and modern lines

Some of them wheels have allready been done on saxo/106, and the others look well boring.

Be different, look around for other wheels and 15" max i would personaly go.

I say go something unique.

Find wheels off another car or something with some dish.

Landrover wheels etc are normally quite interesting.

But... modern lines for me out of the list.

would be interesting, although its quite hard to find good wheels from another car which are smaller than 16
