    Nice one mate, looks good! Surprised you didnt swap the VW caps over, any reason for that?

    Also, what are the standard wheel diameter?

    I actually have now swapped them over to VW caps.. They hadn't come in as of taking those photos but they now have and finished off the rims perfectly..

    The original diameter was 235 x 40 x 18

    Now they just need to be stripped and painted white to complete the storm trooper look and it would be uber hawt!

    couldnt think of anything worse than white wheels on a daily driver, especially with the amount of brake dust VAG pads seem the shed. On a show car, go for it, looks tough as. But daily you'd have to clean your wheels twice a day!

    EBC greenstuff pads and a quality wheel sealant would mean a 5 minute wipe down once a week at the most.
    It's been done on heaps of other cars before, would keep the black and white look.
