Thinking of these wheels

[Bing56]

Found these wheels on UK site. Thought they would look good on my White 06 Golf gti. Let me know what you guys think. At the moment I think only available in 7" by 17". have sent email to see if they are going to make 8" by 18s or 19s with correct offset and stud pattern http://www.torquevw.com/products/wol...e_octane.shtml

They look HOT. Loving the deep dish look .

Is there an Australian stockist or are you going to try and import a set yourself?

Make sure that you hold out for at LEAST the 18' set though!

Not Available For Mkv

Recieved email from uk distributers and wheels not available for mkv gti
"bugger" Will keep looking. One retailer has told me that new models from factories are due out soon in oz and with vw's being more popular we should see more choices...hope so!

you know you can always find a wheel that has the right design and fit ,then get it painted!! thats what I did..

Painting Wheels

I thought of that. However had some concerns about endurance of the finish. Don't want it peeling off. When you get yours done was it powder coating, as I'm thinking of a matt finish to the wheels then getting bonnet painted in gloss black. Also would like to include some red highlight in the wheels, in matt also.
Should give a more mean look to the car. Take away the "it's cute" comments from the chicks I'm thinking.
