18" Wheels for 2006 Silver Jetta?

[Browny]

Hi everyone

My girlfriend has just bought a 2006 Reflex Silver Jetta. It is the top of the line Turbo model with the colour coded bumbers etc.

I was wondering whether anyone had any suggestions for some affordable 18" wheel options? I do like the VW Helio wheels.

Cheers

Helio's look ace but at $600 a pop are going to be an expensive and heavy option.

I would go 18" detroit's or 18" RS4 replica's.
There is also a thread on the forum about 18" Golf R style wheels for sale.

Can't go past 18" charlestons (VW wheel) on a jetta... see if you can pick up a set from a dealership somewhere, may be on the exy side mind you.

Yeah they do look great but you are right... Expensive!!

We dont like detroits and I am getting them taken off my new GTi... How much are RS4 Reps?

I will have a look at that thread.

Cheers

Here's the R wheels thread:

Also the replica's with tyres fitted should be about $1600

As i am hoping to get these on my new GTi, I think it will be a little sad if the girlfriend and I having matching colour VWs with matching wheels to boot!!

So maybe a different option for her

I would say RS4 replica's then.
Or some Merc style wheels.

Where could I find some of them and how much do they normally go for $ ?? Do you know where I can get a picture from?

Many thanks

Tempe tyres have them.
Taleb tyres might have some as well.

Alternatively check out ebay for some.

I put the 18 inch VW Vision alloys on my Jetta with Eibach Springs
