    These were an option in the States i believe, we never got them here in the Gen 1's.
    The look similar to the prado wheels.

    Saw a set on a new Tig in the shopping centre car park today. Looks like a step backwards if you ask me.

    Are these standard items or an option these days?

    I think they look simple, practical & rugged, entirely befitting the image of an off-road vehicle.

    In contrast, the previous design looks a bit ornamental to me.

    I don't actually see the problem with the new wheels.

    Well OK so maybe I was being a little harsh. It doesn't look bad but perhaps just not my taste.



    Though it does kind of remind me of a 10 year old Landcruiser.

    I ordered the 132 Tsi and noticed that these were the rims shown in the current brochure. Mine should be coming in Jan (prob late Jan)
    I'll happily swop these with the previous version.

    Glad I got the Pirelli P6's too - seems some of the new cars are coming with Hangkooks ?

    Anyone know if the 155 wheels changed too ?
