Help me choose...
« on: September 02, 2015, 10:46:47 pm »
...some new wheels. I've narrowed it down to two light weights!

Oz Aallegerita 18x8 ET48


BBS CH-R 18x8.5 ET48 (?) (will need 3mm spacers to clear brakes)



I've done a few photoshops to help visualise them in the car:

Matt Black Oz Allegerita


Titanium Tech Oz Allegerita


Satin Black BBS CH-R with SS Rim Protector


Satin Black BBS CH-R without the rim protector (not sure if possible)


Current Wheels


My front brakes are AP Racing CP5570.

Let me know your thoughts...

I have to 2nd this. I usually hate monzas but they always look good on a white golf! My mate has a mk6 CW gti and they suit that well too!

The two wheels are very similar in weight.

BBS CH-R in Satin Black with SS Rim Protector. I'm more of a fan of black wheels and they'd look awesome on a white GTI.

But frankly, any of the wheels you've listed will be f**king amazing so you won't go wrong either way.

Moving over to Flickr, sorry for the broken picture links!
