What Wheels? 13"

I really want some classic rims for my Polo G40 but I am still undecided, I originally wanted ATS classics 13 x 7 ET20 with 15mm spacers on the rear and 5mm on the front:

But loads of people have these wheels now and they are getting less exclusive by the day, I've also looked in to Minilites:

In chrome or Black centres with a polished lip

Or Starmags:

What do you guys think?

Cheers,

I think the classics would probably suit the car best, but I know what you mean, they're really getting a bit common now. I personally wouldn't go for the minilites, I always think they're a bit too curvy for the old shape (ie mk1/2/3) polos, they don't really work well with the angular design of the car. The starmags look pretty cool though, how would you have them? Plain silver? I recon they'd look pretty cool in dark metallic grey with a polished lip.. just a thought ;)

Depends on the colour of your car but Black centres with a polished lip really appeals to me

I know how you feel james, i really wanted classics too but as you say everyone has them..so i looked at minilites (well the superlite site) CC centres with the rest in black but after seeing the bottom ones i'm changing my mind :-D

where are they from?

P.s i reckon chrome/polished minilites for your car.

i really like the Starmags, never seen them b4. I dont think minilites wood look that good on a mk3, altho if any1 has a pic (photoshop) i wouldnt mind seeing it.

There were a couple of G's at the polo show with them on last year, maybe they will be down again.

I thought they suited the car myself.

i love the starmags but i don't think they will look right on james's car.
