Look wide enough - I'm still under the impression that 14s will fill them better. However - I'm not passing any judgement until i see them finished :thumbsup:

I will hopefully make it down to UD although the car wont be back on the road by then far to much to do until its what i would call show worthy . I want to build it properly this time dude :)

Yes they are Rostyles why should i speak with Rob? Who is Rob ? Tell me something i want to here dude as I'm toying with ideas on how to paint them ...

Yes! B-e-autiful. What steels are they? Look a fair bit like my mk1 polo steels banded....

Dude have seen how much tyres cost ofr 13x10" wheels .. £200+ a corner ..

These are like ET-70 or something silly and will need a 5mm spacer ... Stick out about 2.5" easily on a standard front polo arch .. :lol:

Thanks to a good friend who is loaning me these for UD and helping me totaly revamp my car / colur scheme before i should have a show worthy polo for sure .. :nod:

Should have my new wheels with some Red CC and Red cage amongst a new front suspension setup thanks to a mate with a few old Audis .

Should be stanced to perfection ... Not to mention a full hit from a mates dad's garage as long as i stick stickers on the car saying it was done there (Demo Car) ..

God i love free parts :D Its all coming together for me .. The work has started 8-)

Sneaky piccy of what the colour scheme is based around ...
