Them rondell's look realy good, but that'll be a pic of 18's or summin , so the dish looks awesome! in 15's or 16's, they'll still look good, but not quite as good as that pic

For anyone who doesn't remember, this was phil gti's car on he 15" Rondell's. Some people said they looked like 16's, but I never heard a negative comment about them.
I also have them on my car. Perfect fitment (IMO), 7x15 ET35 and they weigh the same as the OE BBS i.e 8.5 kg per alloy - so no increase in unsprung weight causing less acceleration, and a benefit of having a slightly stretched tyre sidewall, increasing rigidity.

They look just right on that car, but no way would I even chance parking that close to a kerb if I had those

i quite like the TSWs myself, was actually gonna get them b4 i got the RXIIs! sorry man i couldn't sell you my RXIIs, i wanted them so badly for so long b4 i got lucky! the TSWs come in polo fitment ie 16"x7" pcd 4x100, when i was about to order them with r-tec in st.albans they said £433 including tyres, altho they were 45 profile, not 40...

I saw the rondell 58's somewhere a while ago but will they fit right on with some new tyres? i'd probably go for the 16's if i could. (incase you hadnt realise im new to this type of stuff)
Cheers for the help ppl!

Yeah they will go straight on. Just make sure you get PCD 4x100, which is VW fitment and you're golden. They will look great on the car

I believe the TSW Kyalami's are only available in 18" and above, I was looking around for 16", but had no luck. Ideally i think 16" with 4omm or 45mm profile would suit the car the best, with 6Js at the front and 6.5Js at the rear.

as above stay away from the venoms - i'd rather rub my cock through a cheese grater as put them on my car.

The Rondell's look sweet though - those would be my choice
