I'm Sorry to say this to a fellow scirocco R owner Bain but "In my opinion" the colour scheme of those wheels don't suit the car!

I think it's the chrome inserts!

I too believe Polished > Chrome.
How do the H&R feel?
Wheels' review said that the ride was the only downside compared to the megane RS.

That's ok mate. Not everyone will like it what colour would you have the polished fins if you could change them?

When I was looking around I wanted something that wasn't the standard 'mesh' or black finish. Mesh and black look great but you dont want to look like the car next to you!

Flat-mango. The springs aren't in yet. Hopefully after this weekend.t

Good to see there are more of these popping up now...
Soon they'll be as common as the R.
Which is unfortunate IMO

[Glynn.]

definitely an interesting choice of wheel, if you wanted to respray the chrome bits a shiny jet black i reckon it might suit it a bit more,
but by saying that if you like those wheels go for it
Vw must be selling an absolutely **** load of these i see them daily up here in qld

looking good! very tight car!

im straight out.. get rid of the chrome, go gloss black inserts and it'll look much better! You have to take not, euro's dont go well with chrome as it doesnt suit to be completely honest.. (excuse the forwardness but i had to say it!)

It doesn't help that there is no chrome on the car at all other than the wheels either.
With everyhting bing white or gloss black if it wer eme i would get hte inserts painted gloss black or white

Such a nice Rocco .:R Bain however those (Tempe Tyres) wheel look is letting it down
A nice set of Forged Rays or OZ Racing or VMR would look awesome.
