What do you have to do ... just get the existing ones sand blasted and poiwder coated? Anyone know? I would love this look!

just get em painted. quick once over with sandpaper to rough the surface then clean it properly so theres no contaminants, then primer then top coat. or yes you could get them sandblasted and powdercoated

mk5's have massive factory rake

i think colin told me they're just stock standard 17" gti wheels?

[DVR68U]

certainly looks tuff, any more cars running them ?

19" Huffs look the deal.

Yeah, Alex sold them to Colin, so they are the same stock 17in GTI rims but painted black. (Same rims as in the pic Mischa posted)

Alex got a set of 19in OZ Ultras...
