Been looking at these :(

But i want the Lambo wheels in 18's :( :( Shall have to workout whether the drive will like the 19's or not :confused: :laughing:

not quite as extreme as 20's are they!

Will need to do some research on how much sidewall you get on 19's ;)

both really nice sets of wheels Danny you should get the GTI ones for Blugg

I have considered the GTI reps myself, but after reading that thread the other day on them being heavy its kind of put me off.

What are your thoughts on that Mr DNA?

Also what make are the budget tyres?

[Blugg]

Those wheels were always my dream wheels to have on the Bug. The lines and shape work so well with the Bug. But seeing them on the W12 on Top Gear has made me rethink. But my next wheels will be either of these 2 ;)

Unless i change my mind :laughing:

I read somewhere once that the weight of the alloy is displaced when the vehicle is moving. My 20's weigh a ton but i had a much better ride than on the steelies IMHO

I too would be interested in what tyres are on the hoops ;) although tyres can be replaced, wheels are like searching for a wife :laughing:

My mate put bigger (heavier) wheels on his car (not NB) and he has had so much trouble. Gearbox replaced, diff replaced, bushes replaced, shocks replaced, camber adjusted, had it lazer allined, it tramlines everywhere, just a big hassle tbh. I am just concerned about future implications of putting different wheels on. Yep it looks good but what else does it put a stain on that will wear quicker.

They are available without tyres remember! With replica wheels it varies greatly, so you can't really generalise. I run 18' RS6 replicas on mine and they are much better, ideally I'd like some 18' sportecs but don't have 2k kicking around!

I'd prefer them WITH the tires on, can always change them when there bald'ish ;)

The Lambo wheels are now firmly planted as number 2 :) in my wish list, which reminds me :confused:

seen a few mk5 goofs running the lambo rims - look the nuts ;)
