new wheels are on

Post by CARPY25 »

only had the gt 6 months but already on my third set of wheels

when i got it ,it was fitted with these

went through the "i want 15's phaze " but it didn't suit the car made it handle badly and killed the two front wheel bearings quicker then it would have done on 13's

now thanks to "Rolo_gt " im happy 13"x6" et 33 bbs ra's 8-) had problems getting longer wheel bolts but the bay sorted that out

looks really cool mate, seems to sit nicer too, obviously it could use lowering but on 15's it looked more like a 4x4 :) and i like the newport edition centers 8)

just noticed your shinney VW badge too, that looks really cool on your silver car especially with the chrome trim and silver GT badge makes a nice change to the normal minimalist de-badge aproach 8) 8)

nice choice of tyres too, A539's by the look of it?

I'm trying to find some 13x6 BBS's for mine, its proving tricky though!
