Welcome to the new look VWWatercooled

After much work and little sleep there is a new version of the forums running on more powerful and recent hardware as well as an upgraded software platform.

Things are mostly the same, but some things are a little different. We will be learning together, so please post questions (and answers if you've worked things out) in the help thread.

The new forum software is an upgraded version of what came before, it's mostly the same but also a little different. Hopefully easier to use and more stable than before. We are learning together here, so please be patient. If you have questions, please post them here. If you have worked something out and can provide an answer,

        Are you serious??? THere is over 20 threads in this forum on wheels.... when I have some time, I might merge them all and then sticky it. It'll probably be over 100 pages long already though....

          This isnt my car, but i have a red gti as well and i will be getting wheels similar to them. I really like the black rims with the red stripes. It really matches with the car and i reckon it looks awesome. . .

          Im trying to look for some sporty (light) wheels kind of like them. I'm not sure if i should buy bbs wheels though because im not sure if they would add alot of weight to the car or not. Please tell me what you guys think and give me some advice in brands would be best to buy black rims like them.
          thankyou

            Yeah, but they are regarding individuals conceptions of what wheels look good on their/wives/pertners/gf/bf/husbands Golf. Not a thread that has their wheels on their Golfs. I got bored of reading the "Will these XYZ look good on my car?" I want to see what people have actually put on their cars.

            Did that make sense or is it my late night insomniacal brain not functioning again???

              Well then, if you want to see what people have on their own cars, look in the picture thread which is already stickied.

                    Why start a new thread when you can just do a search in 5 seconds? Every major VW Golf forum including vwvortex and golfmk6.com has a specific forum dedicated to nothing but wheels / tyres. Also, its the moderator's responsibility to clean up / merge similar threads, why add to their workload needlessly?

                    Sometimes one has to really question the purpose of half these threads, I won't go into specifics but I think we should all exercise some commonsense when it comes to these things.

                      He is specifically requesting "pictures" of MKVI Golf's with new rims. Yes there are heaps of threads regarding wheels. Can someone direct the thread started to a thread which is the exact same topic?

                      Thats all that needs to be done next time, just re-direct the dood to the exact same thread which already exists. Just my opinion... and being a mod would get frustrating I might add

                        Thanks Adzy.

                        @Dracz: I know there are threads on wheels, but searching for wheels in the MK6 forum resulted in threads on whether the detroits etc would look good on my Golf. Actual pictures of different wheels, not photochops etc. I'm looking for the likes of BBS, Enkei, Rays etc.. Different wheels on the Mk6. Not the same wheels on the same car.

                        EG: I have yet to find a pic of AMG wheels on the NK6 or RS4's. Correction, found one on Vortex.

                        I just wanted a sticky, if you will, of different wheels, not "I just bought my Golf in Baby Poo Brown, what do you think?"
