    Wheel suggestions for a CC Passat - Autumn Brown

    Hey all,

    As my Passat is shortly being delivered, I am beginning to think about new wheels for the beast, as the tyres are the original Conti's and will prob be due for replacement soon.

    now, having read through and google imaged Passat CC, I'm still having difficulty choosing some rims.

    Here's the car:





    I'm not planning on lowering it and i don't think there's much room for + offset (ET45 is std yeah?)

    I was thinking black wheels but looking for opinions.

    Cheers

    Darko

    It really depends what you want out of it.

    Lightweight/performance or heavier/looks.

    I would reccomend these:
    HR2 Wheel - MRR Design

    Or Breyton BE's

    sure thats autumn brown...? looks silver leaf to me.
    as above, depends what you want.
    whats wrong with the standard wheels? they fit nicely at stock height.
    id say some bentley wheels if you can find them/fit them at stock height, or upgrade to the 19" OEM CC wheels/turbines
    those wheels you have are 18x8et42 with a 235/40/18 from memory.

    Yeah, its AB as I rang Mccarons (the original dealer) and they confirmed car / options etc and this included the colour.

    Wanting something 19", wanting to keep it a Lux car so no performance wheels etc (otherwise Work XT7's would go well with the CC) leaning towards BBS/black or even Vertini concaves, but as stated open to opinions.

    If you want classy luxury then i would definitely rock the MMR HR2's in 19"

    Well, having read through the VW Vortex forums for ideas, i'm pretty set on these:

    Vertini Magic Silver | Wheels & Rims |- Ozzy Tyres

    Any thoughts? they do the wheels in 19x8.5 and rather than dodgey tyres, will opt for the Pzero's they have available.
