I'm very happy with the look, will get some piks up from spring fest of the car with all 4 wheels on n stance sorted.

them wheels are well suited on the polo :D

That looks mint.

very nice indeed steph. loving the 9s out back!

rub much?? :)

wheels look naff. Well too wide at the back so you probably won't be able to get low enough, and the design looks too retro for the mk5, sorry.

looks phat, top work

sorry but arent u running steel wheels on a mk5 polo? and bright orange ones at that....?

they are 14" so I'm rockin a pretty low stance tbh!

and i thought it would be kool to mix the new skool with retro instead of following the crowd. nuff said
