UK-POLOS.NET - THE VW Polo Forum

Well the weather has been getting mingin later, so decided to stick my old alloys on!

They are rubbing a fair bit due to the profile of the tyres and the slightly lower offset, but in all honesty....yeh they are defo not my style anymore, but think they look orite....especially for winter. I'v also raised the suspension slightly to minimise the scrubbing. They are stil for sale like, but just couldnt be assed with steelies.

Note the lack of splitter and wing mirror

Poor polo!!!

man looks like you weren't able to get rid of those rims yet.. if you want ill give you 20 quid for em looking for winter rims now

i think the wheels are pretty nice. wat size are they? do they fit straight on the 6n2? ur car dont look that bad without the splitter. at least u got a car....... still not got mine back oh well u can have the splitter back if u want but ud have to repaint it? ......... NA im only joking u cant really. its all mine mine mine mine mine. i'll probably have probs with it with the speed bumps and car parks round here n e way. still keeping it tho.

Nah there is somebody interested, but they have to wait till after the new year etc to build the funds back up. But they told me not to wait around if there is more interest.

Why are you selling them white ones on the bay? they would be decent winters.

They are 16's mate and yeh they fit straight o....like a glove! I'm still desperate for the splitter. Get the front looking mean again!! Lol nice splitter it is, but need the GTI one! A bit more OEM.

I didnt have many probs with speed bumps. Large ones yeh, but it all depends on how low you are really.

i'm selling them as the centre bore is different, altough i am trying to find out how much machinists would charge to expand the centre bore from 56 to 57.1

Yeah mate your current wheels (black ones) suit the car much better.

What happened to your mirror mate?

Lol thats what i did, but it wasnt a branch.....another car! mk4 golf. WHACK! as i look in the rear view at shards of plastic boundin down the road after me! It was still his fault tho!

at least its an excuse to get a stubby one!

Dam rite my man.....finding it difficult to find one tho! like rocking horse s**t and im not paying Vags prices.....bloody ridiculous for a mirror! so im consulting the Germans since they will have a stubby on the right and side as standard due them being left hand drive

The mirrors are getting sprayed black anyways Stealthy!

liking the sound of that chap.
