    Be careful if you upgrade to 18s, my friend had the same style on his S3 but in 18inch size and they rubbed at the rear.

    They look really good on the MKVI GTI, better than the detroits in my opinion.

    Do you know what the offset of the wheel and the size of the tire on your friends car?

    Standard S3 sized tyre ... no idea what the offset was. He sold them and refitted the original wheels.

    HA HA, you are too funny! Hoped you had forgotten I was supposed to do that way back when.
    Hmm glamour shots....well as you are def. the superior photographer of the two of us, when you are down my way
    bring your camera, nice shot of the rear end with those “hot LED tails" of mine will be great.
    Sadly, no glamour wheels to show off at this stage....too quick to change the tyres and not the rims to 18's at the same time - doh!

    Oops, apologies got OT there

    Good work Jay, and Adam with the Omanyts.

    I remember trying to talk you into wheels (30+ page thread) and you didn't even want to spend on BBS, then ended up with DPE's lol. What changed your opinion??

    Got bored with the look of the car and a mate had bought the DPE's for his R36 but he changed his mind on arrival.

    So I got them brand new in box (fully wrapped still) for a nice discount on buying direct from the states. Worth every cent.
