  • What rims? Suggestions please :)

    Howdy Guys,
    Considering getting some new rims, 17x7 or 7.5, please make some suggestions with piccies for a charcoal gray MK3 VR6. Oh, and no $3k per piece jobbies either or i'll cry

      What style do you prefer Simon? 5 spoke? Multi-spoke? Should help us narrow down some choice wheels

        Definitely NOT chrome, a bit "fully sick" for my taste I like 5 spokers, sorta looking for something lightweight, maybe JDM style? Was looking at these;



        Enkeis and Buddy Clubs etc seem to be way too expensive

                17 x 7's.

                They are BSA's. But there are a heap of very similar ones, the casting and painting on these ones are pretty good. Many, especially ones with little bolts around the outside are super crap. At the time they were they rims with the biggest dish I could get my hands on. But with a 5x100 pattern you are laughing, there are so many euro replicas that will fit. What about 17in AMG merc replicas and adaptors! Or E46 m3 rims with adaptors! The possibilities are endless and pretty cheap too.

                  Not a fan of the M3 rims really, some 3 pieces would be nice but huge $$$. Thanks for your help guys, keep posting em up!

                            The only nice wheels I can think of in 17x7/17x7.5 form for 5x100 are Audi OEM (or replica) wheels. Ones like the Fat Five and the other 6-spoke ones that come on the TT.

                              Why do i even bother posting in the mk3 section anymore!! Ray is of course right!! Fat 5's are dope, likewise lots of Audi replica S4, S6 etc are super fresh.
