Madness.

BBS CH Black's look ace on any euro or jap car.

[elisiX]

Awesome.. are these the BBS CH-R? Can you give us more details? (where did you source them from, and cost per corner not inc. rubber?)

I know BBS CH have a black finish wheel, but I am pretty sure the CH-R is the version with the silver lip. Can you confirm? Looks great!

[Lorenz]

They look brilliant, just need to lower the car now

[schoona]

Looks hot mate. True that, DROP IT

[tomtom_r32]

MK6 rolling on CH's = yummy!! haha

Looks awesome mate.

And yes drop it like it's hot.

Must of cost a fortune.

[elisiX]

They're about $510 USD a corner for 18" from Tirerack - hence my asking what he got them for? 19" are about $540 /c.

look nice needs more lip or even a silver lip at that.

lower it too... black on white always looks good.

There BBS 18x8.0 50 5/112 CH025

all together cost $4200 ish with rubber, I think without rubber it was about 3800? ill have to check when I get home. I went with the 18's due to the price difference, for 19's I was quoted $6500

[elisiX]

Holy!... Who charged you that?

From tirerack, including shipping and exchange rate it'd be about $2800-3000 AUD landed.

Regardless, they do looks great with the CW. Now drop it..

JaxQuickFit, the only place that would get them in before March (I orded them back in December)

Don't know why no one could bring them in earlyer in ACT, proberly could have got them cheaper in Sydney but CBF driving to sydney =P


edit: Im not a fan of the rubber thats on them atm, Also does droping it effect the handling or ride much? and how much would I be looking at to drop it?

[Lima]

Nice, very nice! Will have to keep an eye out for you.

See the "wheels for my mk6 GTI" thread link (its a golfmkv.com link) for a comparison done by WhiteJames. He is the expert and has all the pros and cons of all the different setups

The mk6 is not dissimilar at all to the mkv really, so it's all good relevant info.

You could spend anywhere between $800 for sprins fitted to 15k for coilvers fitted.
KW V2's, H&R coilovers, Bilstein PSS10s just to name a few..

awesome, mate!
too expensive for me... - -

Awesome wheels. The CW looks great, but dude, gotta DROP IT.

Also, interested by the fact you ain't a fan of the rubber. I had the Marangoni's on my R32 (same size as yours) and found them to be a good all round tyre. I also remember (I think) that they won a tyre review in Motor Mag for best Performance tyre in 2007 or 2008. Plus lifetime warranty for non-repairable punctures..............I knocked a curb 1 week after I had them fitted and damaged the sidewall - replaced FREE of charge without question. Now that was service!
