Re: new wheels

Nice contrast with the black. One of the guys on here got his Fabia wheels powder-coated in white; he should have pics after the week-end.

Re: new wheels

I run Audi S3 alloys on my Octy and the 6 spoke design suits it imo also is really easy to clean, especially as I had them redone anthracite.

Pics on here somewhere!

Re: new wheels

I love the look of anthracite wheels on a black car, and the original 17" spiders on mk1 vRS's are imo really smart looking wheels to start with.

Re: new wheels

We shouldn't clash at all as...

1)I'm from just outside Edinburgh and
2)My Octy ain't black

Have a look on the link above to see mine. Black Vrs with 18 inch OZ Superleggeras. I dont think you can buy them anymore unfortunately. They changed to Ultraleggeras which are nasty.
