Some lovely wheels in here and I know it's out of the usual style but does anyone have any track style wheels such as compomotive or speedline? I'm fancying some compomotive mo 6 wheels for my black gti just wondered what they would look like

It is lowered!  I'd just cleaned the wheels properly by taking each one off! That's why it looks like a monster truck !!!
I think it's jacked up at the time I took the photo too

If you have a look at my brothers wheels on his silver gti, in post 444 those are in nigaro black. That's kind of a gunmetal/anthracite.

They will be really set off by the deep dish polished and gunmetal! You gotta post some pics when you get them done!

It's worth noting that if you use TUV approved PCD correction bolts and ensure the spigot is 100% right, then the whole 114.2 Jap world is your oyster. The OZs below were Jap fitment and I used them on track with no problems.

Speedline Turini. 18x8 ET42



OZ magnesium. 18x8 ET47




I thought correction bolts and therefore Rota Grids were a no no for track. Hmmm just possibly opened up a wealth of possibilities for a second set of wheels for me Mike

God those Oz's were awesome!

**edit

Ps how much do turinis weigh in 8x18?

They have to be the best wheels I've seen on a MK5. Properly mint.

I'd love to see what Turini's or those OZ look like on your Cupra Mike :happy2:
