Wheels

Nice look. For some reason the 18's look too big... Even with the drop. I think its because there is no scale to the photos (no car next to it to compare)

Now I dont want to have a go but KU19's are pretty cheap tyres, fora few extra pennies the Ku31's get good reviews (for their price).

What suspension is it on? How do you find the 35 profile? Any idea on the weight of each rim?

After those pics, you need the sports kit fitted!

I agree with noone, I have the KU31 on the golf currently and for the price, I reckon they are a great tyre and not that much more, considering you already spent $3k

Agreed looks hot with those wheels. ! Btw take off the dealer number plate surrounds.

All really good bigfoot

Thanks for the pics. Now I need to take some photos of mine too....wait a minute!..I'm still waiting on mine

Oh yeah bigfoot, it just needs darkest legal tint and that thing would look truly mean

bigfoot - oh my, what big feet your car has

those wheels look awesome, very nicely matched with the car/colour. They also look absolutely huge compared to the discs, maybe a brake upgrade next? Or paint the calipers red?

Looks great, thanks for the pics

what sports kit are you referring to?

actually i'm pretty happy with th ku19s in terms of road noise, ride quality and grip, although i havent pushed the boundaries of grip yet.

they were recommended to me and i did my own research and they get 3.5 stars.

Looks good bigfoot, if the missus saw those photos she'd never stop harassing me until she got something similar on her's!

Those rims look sweet! A great choice for the Pepper Grey.

I was thinking of getting a quote for the 17" VW Motorsport rims in black for my candy white GTI on order. The Newcastle dealership had a white GTI demonstrator fitted with them and it looked awesome!

Although I'm scared to even imagine what the price will be...
