Gorgeous - a 100% improved.

I'd love to see what they'd look like with colour coded centres and polished lip...

Have to say I think I prefer your old ones.. but the new ones could look pretty sweet with a bit of paintwork.. oldskool grey/dark colour powder coat of some sort maybe?

Colour coded centres with silver rims considered... but not good enough with Photoshop to try it!

Getting some mixed opinions on Porka these wheels, but have added these to the pile. Whadda you guys think?

I like the multi spoke designs. Really love the 2nd pic. Wanted to know what a mark3 would look like with GTi rims on (was thinking about it myself).

Ah, didn't realise it was a photoshop.. nice work there :)
I definately prefer the GTi ones, they suit the rest of the style far better.. although the first ones had a bit of potential :)

The borbet's look ok. I think 14" RH Cups would suit yours a treat.

They'd look pretty boo on my car - if I ever get the centres back - 1 week turnaround has turned into we are pretty busy, would you mind waiting another week :cry:

Can't complain too much - I got a good deal on the price

Just 2 more tyres to buy, finish the stripping laquer job and re polish and then it'll be slap em together and bang em on.......

And as if by Magic.......

I like the BBS ones.

But if you're selling your old one I'd be interested :D
