Any plans for your summer wheels?

  • Author

No idea yet, just gonna concentrate on saving first. So many wheels to choose from. I like Lenso RS5's but I've always liked euro style wheels.

The car will feel much better with those bad boys on!

Ideally I'd have two sets of wheels if money were no object - make my RX's my winter wheels.

I had Lenso RS5's on my mk4. Nice wheels

Getting there Danny! Looking forward to what you have planned for it.

Plans are good, but the bonne bra looks a complete shoddy fit to me? whos it made by!

lol its autobra, its just my shit fitting dont worry haha. i find it hard to stretch the corners over, and when you do and shut the bonnet it comes out again and get these creases. Maybe i just need practice at doing it lol

i noticed when i put it on aswell danny, bit of a shit fit if you ask me :(

I organised the group buy and everyone else's fits perfect...

You need practice dude and make sure all clips are on back holding it tight and in place!

Nice progress.

Yeah i just need practice at doing it, and i have no idea where the clips go so i just clip them all together and tighten them lol

And thanks :) just cant wait to get the coilies on :D

Looks so much better once it's lowered!

Keep up the good work with it! :D

Looks gawjus lowered, such an improvement!

I them wheels would look nice in a real dark grey!

Looking smart, you'll get to use to the bumpy ride soon enough and having it lowered gives you loads of confidence on winding, sharp corners :-D :thumbsup:
