Pic request - GTi's on 16" BBS RXII's

Post by MrP »

Since no one wants to buy my car i've seen some 16" BBS RXII's with my name on them..

I would muchos like to see some pictures to see what they look like first... I know these are the same as orignal wheels, just bigger..But that 1" will make all the difference..

They are great looking wheels but can be a pain in the ass too

You have to treat them well to keep them looking good and the winter murders them so its best to have some winter wheels for when the roads get salty.

Sorry to drag up an old thread but;

I have a 6n2 GTi with the standard 15" BBS RX2s on. Having seen the pictures of the same wheels in 16" I'm very keen to get a set, but I read somewhere that RX2s came in varying sizes/stud patterns/offsets etc depending on which model they came on. I'm not big on the idea of adaptors so I'd like to get 4 stud but I have no idea about offsets or what else I need to look out for when buying some 16"s. The rear wheels are tucked in to the arches too much in my opinion so I am open to putting spacers on the back. Could someone point me in the right direction as to what wheel specs I should be looking for to get the most straightforward fit on my car?

Cheers.

Mike.
