i'm halfway through refurbing them. and then selling them (for sale section)
tt comps are niiiice, but far too over done tbh.
also something simple will be good. any easy to clean lol
i'm not off low low, just normal due to it been my daily.

Black Monos would look great on your car Pip. Or anthracite ones.

Merc rims are a good option. Depends on what stance you're after. Tucked or not?
If tucked on a 7.5" rim you're gonna need et30 or more (et35 on front). For a little bit of poke and a higher ride height (which might not work on 17s) then et20 on the rear works well. et30 on front.
16s with 195/45 is hard to get very low and still allow it to be a daily. Particularly if it's a TDI (low sump).

Copy who? Who cares what everyone else has. If they look good and you like them put them on!
