I Currently have these wheels on my car. 18" Team Dynamics Mesh II.



But fancy going down the OEM route. Looking at either scirocco type wheels like these
http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/190751192725?_trksid=p5197.c0.m619

GTI style wheels with polished faces
http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/18-VW-GOLF-MK5-2007-2009-GTi-HORSE-SHOE-DESIGN-GLOSS-BLACK-POL-ALLOY-WHEELS-/251184488884?_trksid=p5197.m1992&_trkparms=aid%3D111000%26algo%3DREC.CURRENT%26ao%3D1%26asc%3D14%26meid%3D3551155928300755494%26pid%3D100015%26prg%3D1006%26rk%3D1%26sd%3D251184488884%26

Or these, I think they are new RS6 wheels,
http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/140444498866?ssPageName=STRK:MEWAX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1438.l2649

Or should I stick with what is on now?!

i bought a mk5 it came GTI styled with bumpers etc but rims are replicas exactly like the ones youve posted black inners + diamond cut faces.

the idiot before me had really lightly grazed the laquer on 2 of them and it all just started to peel off even where it wasnt grazed with just the jetwash...also took mine for 4 new tyres and 2 of mine were cracked, so iv got a slow leak on one of them. just be wary of the quality on replica wheels - thats all im saying.

I just know if i get the GTI replicas id end up doing the full kit!

Wrighty i'm a bit dubious about the polished ones, seen so many that look shabby very quickly. Had a set of RS4 replicas a few years back and they seemed fine, Was just the tyres that where crap on them.

IvI, That looks pretty smart, Been swaying towards them!

Might call into the wheel place tomorrow and have a look at what they have, its between the rs4 and rs6. The scirocco wheels I don't think will go.well, and the polished gti wheels will probably look rough very quickly.

Personalized number plate is going to get sorted this week aswell with a bit of luck!

Browsing throught ebay last night i found a set of wheels I was looking for in as new condition. Asked the seller if he wanted to sell outside of the auction and he said yes!

So today, I picked up the new wheels.



Just waiting for the bad weather to go and they'll be put on!

I think so, they are advertised as TTRS wheels.
