  • Wheel recommendations 4x100 / Photoshop masters, can I borrow your skills?

    I know, not a vw, not a euro, not even close, but this is the only forum I'm on and don't want to put my name on a Mitsubishi fully sick forum haha

    The gf got a new mirage, that pink one, they call it mulburry, what ever that means, but as a man, I only know a few colours, so I'll call it pink

    I got this off the internet


    Can any recommend some wheels to go on this? It has 4x100 15" x 5" rims with 175/55 R15 tyres and it just looks silly haha

    It's actually fairly impressive for a 1.2L, 3 cylinder, 57kW monster haha at 4.6L/100km, it does alright.

    Thanks for your help, if this offends the peoples of the forum, you can delete it

        get something designed for a BWM, will add some width.
        bit hard without the offset.
        175s lol! no wonder the fuel economy is so good, there isnt any contact with the ground
        Bora gone
        Vento VR6
        MKIV GSW TDI
        7P Touareg TDI

          i would be $20 that the offset is a 40-50 or something silly like that.

          You'd probably want to be looking for 'generic' 4x100 wheels, that suit civics, lancers etc etc etc.

          I'd look at getting something unoffensive in a 15 x~6.5". with a slightly lower offset to fill out the archs a bit better (I imagine there isn't a whole heap of room to play)


          i like volkswagens

              Yeah I’d imagine the very tiny contact point makes a significant assistance in the fuel economy, so probably going wider will damage that but it just looks silly I read on a thai forum (so many ricey mirages in Thailand haha) et 40. I can only really find rota wheels, cringe :S but i’ll find something eventually.

              Yeah I think you’re right, Thailand forum reckons et 40, the is actually a decent amount in there, surprising, someone had 8” with a bit of poke lol

              Funny you say that, when I picked it up, I had to drive past a group of tradies who all looked and laughed I would have killed for tint haha
