    Golf GL

    Olla,

    This is my first car, i got it last year. Recently found this forum and decided to start a thread.




    What i've done to it:
    Full leather VR6 interior
    All new speakers including tweeters
    New head unit
    Tail lights
    Head lights
    VR6 grill
    VR6 front bumper


    Now one thing that i would like are some of your opinions on wheels to suit my car as i have 4 VR6 hubs sitting in the shed waiting to put onto the car when the tires are completely dead.


    Also being a teenage boy i would like to go bigger wheels, hehe.
    I had some ideas.




    Thanks for putting in the effort to read this.

    Welcome to the forums.
    Firstly great choice and by what I have read it should look pretty sweet, however the photos aren't working for my via tap talk on my mobile. Are you using photobucket for your pics?

    Nice! Paintwork looks in good nic and similar colour to my vr6 if you want to go bigger wheels most people go for 16" or 17" just do some reading up on the offsets that your after and start the hunt for some 5x100. Also keep in mind the centre bore of 57.1

    I like them to, but i can't keep them because of the stud pattern.

    Oh right. Didn't read the swapping hubs thing.

    4x100 has heaps better wheels then 5x100.
