Really not meant to be a hijack situation but as BBS CK were mentioned earlier in this thread, can i ask.

Does anyone know if you can get the CK's in anthracite finish but in 18" size, the larger 19" option seems to be most often advertised.
Really wanna keep on 18's for my Ed30. On my white 3 door I think these would look very ok..
Do you reckon that would be 8J rather than Pescara 7.5 wide? So would 225/40/18 tyres still do?

Please excuse my wheel ignorance..

I think VMR 710 are best looking alloys seen in long time  :notworthy: really suit the mk5 gti and come in matte black/ gunmetal/ hyper silver, i would defo go for gunmetal in 19s look quality. I need to get these out my head  :scared:

Those VMR's do look the bizzo, and are very reasonable in price.
Are there an disadvantages going to 19's over 18's?

not as many different tyres to chose from and weight. I'll be going 19" this spring as daily drive rims, but 18" for track and winter  :happy2:

I've already put a marker down with the Wife that i'm having a set of these in 19" this summer  :pomppomp:. I think they look fantastic on a MK5, VMR do some seriously nice wheels in my opinion.

There is a set of Helios on Ed38 http://www.edition38.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=363566

Great great set of wheels, I think the guy has them on ebay. Really want a set for me, but 19's aren't the most practical and I have no $ to buy them, but are watching them all the same!
