I prefer the Porsche ones...on a Porsche!

I you were fitting them to a 9n i'd go for the Exors.

Ypur right about keeping to the originals. The Exors do look the bizz...... but the Cup 3s are rarer on a 9n. Just nice to know people opinions

I prefer the kind of uniqueness of the porsche wheel though i know Exors aren't common. If i had the choice it'd probably be the porsche ones (based on no knowledge of techinical difficulties :roll: ).

Porsche - Why spend money on alloys to make it look standard?

It's time like these when it pays to think like a woman...what do they do if they like two pairs of shoes? buy them both...they want two desserts...have them both...

If you like both the Porsche Cups and the Exors...go on...treat yourself! heh heh! (I'm such a bad influence!).

Personally I do like them both, I've not seen the Porsche Cups on any 9N, nor have I seen the Exors come to think of it...tricky!

Because Exors aren't standard wheels, they're Votex distributed wheels :roll:

Exor's are my choice - the Porsche Alloys are fine on a mkiv Golf but just don't look right on a Polo.

The Porsche alloys are also the ones most likely to get nicked as they are instantly recognisable. Also remember the picture of the Exors does not represent them in a good light as the suspension looks stock. The Porsche image has been dropped so the car virtually sits on the alloys, obviously giving the car a whole new stance.

Why not photoshop the Exor car drop the body slighly and then decide!!

Have you seen Santa Monica's on a Polo :?: Now that's what I'd go for.

Santa Monicas on the Polo 9n look the bizz. Thats what I would go for but original VW Santa Monicas cost a lot as they are polished and original equipment :(

I prefer the Porsche ones but they are a bit too blingin' for me. The Santa Monicas look good on the Golf but dont fill the arch as well as they would do on a Polo :D

The Exors are at a disadvantage becasue the other Polo sits properly on the Porsche wheels.

This does the Exors justice but now they are at an advantage because of the body kit.

But have to love the good old BBS ACs. Not at 350 euros each though. Plus they look a lot like The Ace 112s every Bad Boy Punto GT owner has on their Punto. Sorry Jazzy but it's true mate.

Dont worry drinks are on me :)
