the bbs's i have are bare at the moment. they would need spraying/polishing
they are not the same as g40 ones, mine are 6" wide instead of the g40 5.5"

yup, they aint mk1 wheels, as said the gap between the p's are too big. them be the same as mine off a mk2 golf.
I personally prefer the bbs. I'd be running bbs if someone had sold me some for the same money as the p's at the time...

I think 14" steels would look pretty right. Powder coated in a dark silver / charcoal metallic and I think they would suit the car nicely.

Pirelli P Slots look wicked, especially polished, but it'd be a shame if everyone started running them as they'd lose their individuality.
I reckon go for the steelies, I nearly did once, and I was gonna go for something a bit special which I've never seen on a Polo before.
Money is a b***h.
