Shameless OZ plug.

Further evidence of how good these wheels look on a Mk7, and you can still buy a set for barely more than reps, see my sig

I think the biggest problem with selling your wheels is the sensible/conservative sizing, which doesn't appeal to the target market, who probably want 19x8.5. I might suffer a similar fate when it's time to sell, as mine are also a conservative 8.0 ET48. Maybe, it's time to put yours on eBay and cut 'em loose.

Just on this, i can't believe some of these friggin rep companies (looking at you VMR) have the gall to charge 2 grand plus for 19's.

Indeed.

I don't doubt it, but there are still enough sensible people around I figured, plus being OZ + HLT they'd make a great set of track wheels - let's face it, no ones hitting the track on 19s if they're serious.

In VMRs defence most 19s still fall under $2k locally and their quality is a step up from the unbranded crap being sold at the $1k mark.

Always a classic look. Just the right amount of aggression.

This one reminds me of an old Citroen with failed pneumatic suspension I once saw abandoned on the side of the road... dumped and with flat tyres.

The 810s are VMRs best wheel now, and suit the Mk7 perfectly.

I'm not feeling the Mk7 Citroen either, but the thread doesn't discriminate - we even showed Santiagos a couple of times.

Still a vastly superior wheel for the Mk7 than that Cadiz thing.

"Look ma, I'm going off-roading!"

The bigger the wheel, the lower you need to go..

Posting this reply from the city where this whole thread started, Adelaide.
