Hope these may be of some inspiration.
This is one of the official super 1600 rally car they used.
Smaller racing.
Not a GTI but worth the picture..

They are what I'm looking at.. But at 7J which is too skinny to pull them off me thinks... OZ Cronos (sometimes spelt Chronos) I am also looking at Compomotive MO's, but they are hard to find in 4x100 and concave faces.

Ah yeh wicked cars definately my favourite too.
The TNT sponsered car was offically the super 1600 car for the Volkswagon rally team.
Weighed 950Kg which is over 100Kg lighter than ours with stock interior.They were also the first VW engine to have "Vermiculargraphit" added to the block casting to help with the severe pressures and heat the engine generated.Although maximum power output was acheived at 8750 RPM the engines did actually rev up to 9800 RPM hence the high temperatures.
Makes you want to tune the nuts off your polo dosen't it,i know it does me.

Cheers for the info Bradley
very interesting stuff
With them having over 200bhp per tonne they must have been very fast indeed.
Go example for people who are interested in stripping their cars too, shows that you can potentially loose 130KG's from the standard Factory weight.
