I picked up my Porsche Cup wheels last night & now i cant wait to try & get them on....
So bring on the weekend & i will play about with them & see what size adaptors i will need, should be fun
The wheels are 16x7 (et55) & 16x9 (et70)
So the biggest problem will be the rears :badgrin:
I'm debating on the refurb options, i have something in mind but feel free to chuck your ideas at me

As some of my so-called 'mates' would say..."raaated hoe". Major surgery is correct. Can't wait to see your ride scrape off the tarmac lol.
Btw thanks for the angel eyes!!!

right i tried the wheels at weekend....
the fronts arent going a problem at all, getting a 25mm adaptor & they sit nicely under the arch
now the rears are going to possibly cause me a problem, im having to use a 45mm adaptor as the back of the wheel was catching the rear axle. although they may not stick out as much as shown as i tried to guage 45mm best i could

I have posted anything about my wheels for a while now...
Not much progress so far i must admit as i have had my boot & rear bumper resprayed as i they were on the red 8v
But i think i have decided to with 195's on the rear, probably goin to go for 40 profiles aswell
Got a few pictures, but hard to get the rears exactly spaced how i want them as my 45mm adapters are on order from germany
& also thanks to chris_polo_gti (clubpolo) for photoshopping what my wheels would look like on
Standard finish
Polish lips with cream centres
opinions & comments welcome
