The Official Mk7 Wheel Thread

No problems, good choice.

Back in the day the 235s were a lot cheaper than 225s as they were a Falcodore size, but I guess as time has gone on their market has dwindled while a lot of smaller cars are now running 225 18s - but if I recall the speedo correction was only around the 2% mark or less (someone correct if they know or calculate it) and the touch extra sidewall arguably can improve ride slightly.

A little more on the OZ front with Ultraleggeras again:

And Superturismos:

Dutch are you a dealer?
Because you are definitely the wheel guru and I would purchase from you if I could get these for my Octavia rs

He's not a dealer, he's a wheel whore

But I'm sure he can point you in the right direction if you're after a specific wheel as he has some good contacts... perhaps a side-line business Dutch???

Shoulda started up that importing gig Dutch! I'll get in on the ground floor as an investor, and sample the product occasionally.

Quite the wheel **** actually, you probably don't do it for the money eh Dutch?

LOL - good call guys.

Trust me, the thought of giving it a crack has crossed my mind once or twice but seeing what goes on behind the scenes of a small scale car related import business has probably left it as an idea on the back burner for now.

Would need to go hard for some quality brands not currently here or not marketed correctly here - certainly wouldn't go down the Ozzy oi oi oi route.
