Alloys help!

Hi Guys

Right, i know that pretty much everyone on here has either 15"/16" alloys. However, i am on 17" and need new ones. I am totally stuck on which ones to buy and could do with a little help.

The ones that interested the most at the moment are Fox motorsport RS-3, Lenso Shu, Kendo Asia tec silver or black and Inox GTR-4.

I'm not sure how to put the links on the website so if anyone has spare time to look maybe you can help me decided.

Cheers

you looking for just 17s?

If you only want 17's then I'd have gone with Dotz Roadster, gunmetal with a polished Lip.... not much else in that size would suit imo.

Or maybe Dotz Las vegas (similar to Keskins, but cheaper)

Stay away from Wolfrace, theyre made of butter! Lenso's belong on Rice mobiles, and fox racing are BBS knock off's.

I wouldn't go any bigger than 16's.....IMHO it just doesn't suit the car

As much as I agree, if the guys asked for 17" recommendations then that's what we should give

The Keskins look the part I think.

I'm a big fan of these wheels I think they'll look real good on a nice Mk5. They have a kinda Mercedes vibe about them.

Out of your choices, I'd go for the Inox GTR4.

Also, shut up about 15's/16's; not everyone has to be the same (why does everyone have to be a critic these days

).

@ Ollie R: I really like those SSW's you posted, I love flat full face designs like that... site says there out of stock, so I googled them, apparently theyre discontinued

EDIT: POTN have them

I dont see why 17's wouldnt work, they look ok in the pic in his avatar, and the MK5 is from the same design book as the MK4 Golf and those guys stick the biggest wheels they can under their arches... if 19's can look good on a Golf then 17's can look good on a Polo. It just needs playing with to get the stance right, staggered fitment etc... would look pretty cool if done right, something AMG style like those SSW's.
