  • This is one of life's little what the moments. I noticed a matchbox car on the counter tonight (surprise one as I didn't know Junior Dubber had any). But I was mightily impressed when I noticed the branding on said vehicle:

    Who knew, but now the Speaker can't blame me for wheel shopping with Junior - she bought the toy.

      A couple of angled views:

      Although on a side note I much preferred the wheels on the Audi on the stand:

      And to a lesser extent the AMG-Mercedes:

      This bloke certainly enjoyed the show:

      All very tasty cars and wheels. Would they be 20's on the golf or even bigger? Huge.

        I'd guess at 20s.

        Looking through all these wheels I've tended to find any wheel with some concavity to it gives the feel of bigger, as does a wheel fitted with some tyre stretch - the sidewall ends up looking smaller and the wheel bigger.

        It seems to mainly be the Brazilians who go over 20.

              • Thursday extra.. Austins on a Mk5 and Mk6. Fair to say they actually quite suit the Mk6.

                            The thread likes to occasionally step outside its core purpose.

                            I for one would never get rid of my OEM wheels* as I'd always put them back on for sale later, as I did on both Mk6 and Mk7 - and not applicable to the S3.

                            * I suspect replacing Santiagos with even 15 inch steelies would add value to a PP
