The MK5/6 Wheel thread!

Just got my new wheels, they are 18" VW OEM and I believe they are called Chicago Lightweight, although they felt pretty heavy when I was putting them on.

Ooh, some nice rims on this thread. I'll throw mine on:

19" River Wheels R1s with 235/35/R19 rubber. TBH I'm getting quite bored of them, I've had them for four years and think I might swap for some BBS this year. Not sure if I want 18s or 19s.

...I live to serve...

I'm feeling distinctly meh about that at the mo though. What I am lusting after are these:

Can't get them yet, and anyway, not sure if I want 18s or 19s. Looking at the other delicious wheels on this thread I think I had better stick with 19s.

^^^^^^^^ BBS CS-5's???

Im after the Audi split-rim version (very similar) in 19" Like rocking horse sh*t !

Correct, CS-5s. Think I'm gonna have to get them in 19s when I have some cash, it's all going on the Karmann atm.
