A set of stunners!! Check these out!

Post by rydale13 »

Hey all...
Just lookin for some rims to invest in for my MK4 dragon green polo! Found a set of these that are exclusive from the US! Reckon they will go really well with the colour of the car and give it that sort of GTI OEM look. What does everyone think??

Was thinkin og getting it lowered to but I cant work out if I should go for 40 or a 60mm drop! cant afford coilies atm!

Cheers!

Gonna go for 16's. They look nice on that golf R32! The great thing about the US stock is they come with a deep dish(ish) effect. About 2 inch dish. Prefer the gun metal finish to, and also easier to keep clean! lol. there only 140 USD each! thats like £70! baragin

7x16 rim and 194/40/16 tyre!

I knw! they look effin amazin!! gonna be a pain in the ASS to try and get these to the UK. Gotta go through customs and all that jazz. But it will sure be worthit in the end!

These with a 60mm drop on a draggon green MK4! Sounds like the perfect combo!

They're sweet. I'd go for the lowest drop possible, forget practicality!
