You don't look at the wheels while you're driving, but you do listen to the stereo...IMHO
Just got my second GTi last week - 8000km old MK6 in black still with 17" stock wheels.
I can only spend $2500 for the first upgrade and thinking of getting Dynaudio after market setup OR Bilstein B14 Coilovers. The 18" wheels will come after the suspension.
My last GTI MK5 had Koni Sport/Eibach sportline and 18" wheels. I might do the size of wheels.
I also loooove music in good quality sounds.
Now I am not sure which upgrade to get first! the next upgrade wouldn't be for next few months.
So, Sound systems or suspension first?
Help me make a decision guys

How about a tune and exhaust?
You can then listen to the exhaust

Hmm GTI pretty fast out of the box I see no reason to overdo the performance side as it will probably give you problems at a dealer level , had a customer of mine who chipped and did other stuff to his Golf and had a black flag put against his car by the dealers so any warranty for drive train etc would not be honoured . Sound System upgrade is my priority no need for loud exhaust as some systems can cause annoying droning at cruise speeds , and lets face it these days with all the speed cameras and hooning laws its not worth it . IMO .
