have been looking for a new set of wheels to replace the current
stealths on mine, not lookin for anything ridiculously expensive, but
a mate back home in Belfast had a set of 15' TSW Hockenheims, which i think will suit the car perfectly, and he said he'd give me them for £100
anyhow next problem was how to get them to the Isle of Man, first off there is no ferries to & from belfast until April, and even then they wont carry unattended freight because they think it might be a bomb (why would u wanna bomb the seacat  ), so only way was to air mail them which would be a tad expensive, or alternativily wait until mid April & go over & pick them up
then my sister had a brainwave (& these arent common) she said she
could get them to me for nowt!!
How??
by fishing trawler!! so my new wheels are set to be delivered to Peel harbour in a fortnight for me to pick up!
just hope they dont smell of kippers!

nope, have you ever seen a mk2 on anything bigger than 15's? just looks way outta place
Mk3 Golfs are a totally different kettle of fish and suit big wheels
these are the hockenheims, and they do look a bit similar to BBS's
