The MK5/6 Wheel thread!

^^^^
You are very welcome. And Thank You for the Thank You!

I rounded off the weights to the nearest kg - Mine are actually 8.035 kg. The OZ cost a lot more than the TD's and the TD's are extremely good value for money and perfect for trackdays. Going lighterweight than 8 kg costs £thousands rather than £hundreds and probably means having forged alloys and more risk of breakage in road use.

£5grand will buy you some very tasty carbon wheels:

Another here with TD 1.2s

Was pondering whether to fit my anthracite Turinis, currently sat in my garage, to my CW Ed30, these pictures confirm for me that I should, cheers.
Current Detroits have been liked by everyone who sees them.
However these TD pics on a white car look fab.

Cheers! Get them on and get pictures up!

Why, thank you. At the RRP of nearly £600 a wheel I should hope they are. Like any other OEM wheel tho, they can be picked up for a bargain price now and then. Just got to keep your eyes out for them.
