The Official Mk7 Wheel Thread

Run don't walk from youi

Won't get any arguments from me - I'll only stick with insurers that let me use my repairer to work on the car.

Worth pointing out for the sake of this wheel thread that if you do fit a set of wheels (or other components) that are not legal you could risk losing not only your coverage on the mods but the car itself. Another reason to tread carefully unless buying a Mk7 is the equivalent of choosing lobster for mains to you.

What defines legal and illegal?

What defines legal and illegal?

Each state has their own set of rules on what is and isn't, although they are generally fairly similar. This will cover both diameter and width changes, and also require the wheels to sit inside the guards and not foul the bodywork etc.

Definitely worth remembering a lot of the set-ups in this thread will not be legal locally, or will at least require some work to make them legal - if anyone is unsure then check your state's regulations and seek further advice through places like this.

ADV.1 5.0
Specs: tbc







As these wheels come in a range of custom specs the exact measurements on these wheels is an unknown although I'd guess they're 20 inch, and I believe they've been finished off in the impressively named 'manbronze'.

Geezus is there any rubber between the rim and road?

[Dutch77]

I'm taking a stab at 20 inch with a little stretch, which on that angle/shadow exaggerates the lack of rubber to the road.

Or as the motor mags like to reference such a profile - rubber bands.
