    ^ It is your car though man, your the one buying the rims.

    No matter what style it falls under, your car is purposeful in intent (good brakes etc), so i think some lightweight rims would:

    1-look good/perhaps like some jap circuit car rims, but for good reason (they use them because of their lightweight and strength)
    2-for those who are really into circuit racing, doesnt matter what type of car, they will recognise the rims as purpose serving, and therefore most likely forget the genre of car which they are on, or even find the mix of german and jap cool

    sorry for those probably hard to understand statements lol. I was trying just to say that you already have the circuit/purposeful look, why not top it off with the rims

    I'd take the Reverse Mesh for show, but they're not very track friendly on the Mk3 if you're sticking with those sizes! You'd be running adapters on those babies too as I've NEVER caught them in a 100 PCD pattern.

    Those Enkei RC-T4 looks good though! Yeah they do look like the Superturismos too. I got myself some of those:





    They're 16x6.5 and had stampings and everything, but they do look *slightly* different to the pictures I've seen on the internet... makes me wonder if they're actually real or not. And another important issue was that they were much heavier than I expected. They weighed at least a kg more than the BBS and Work Equips I have, and they're actually bigger in size.

    Anyway, if the VR6 is to see the track a lot, I reckon you'd do better with the Enkei wheels.

    firstly! they are actually 5x100! OMFG HUH!
    Secondly, the Superturismos arent really all that light for a "race bred" rim, in 17x8 i was told 9kg as apose to the Enkei RC-T4 in 17x8 being 7.2kg! kind of gay really! if u want track rims, go jdm . . .

    i think i may bite the bullet and get the ssr's they're a lil exy even after talking him down, but i think im in love and who can place a price on love? ive been racking my brain all today and yesterday! i didnt even sleep yesterday cuz ma mind was so dambed awake debating wid maself!! man am i paying now though lol, sleeeeepy . . . *drool*

    thanks for everyones replies!!

    . . . going t sleep . . . Alex
