what wheels?
I've now got my car lowered on coilovers (finally!!) and am stuck on the old ull 14 inch VW wheels. Obviously I want some new wheels just I don't know which ones. I don't really want to spend more than £500.
Maybe G60's, ats cups? and what size rim should i go for because i like 14 inch rims and you can get quite low down with it without it being stupidly low.

Re: what wheels?
Those Calibre Dub's are proper nice and would look nice, what tyres would be best and wheel spacers or not?
Re: what wheels?
those Calibers are 7.5" wide from the link I posted so I would go for 195 or 185 tires (with a gentle stretch) with a 45 or 50 profile. leave the spacers for last, first fit the new wheels with the desired tires and then if you see you have space where to fit spacers buy accordingly
Re: what wheels?
teh jmags are impossible to source in this country seems theyre only available in america
they do some crazy eclectic colours though!
blue and pink look mental, definitely different

Re: what wheels?
Think I'm going to get some G60's with a nice 165 stretch on them 
Re: what wheels?
you can never go wrong with g60s, but i dont know if 165 will stretch well on 6j though?
Re: what wheels?
go for banded G60 at least and not the ugly silver onceJosh_6n2_Polo wrote:Think I'm going to get some G60's with a nice 165 stretch on them

for the banded steels prices...you are looking at around £320 to £360 ... FOR AN AWESOME SET OF WHEELS

I am not a fan of those wheels to say the truth ... they go best on mk3 escorts imo ... doesn't suit the polos

Re: what wheels?
So for like £360 i get a set of 4 brand new g60s (banded) with tyres?
Re: what wheels?
not quite sure on how it works and if they are G60s or not, or if you could supply your own wheels and they work on them. But I am quite sure that price is for the wheels only and no tires. You might give them a call and ask about the G60 thing
