I think you can go a bit leftfield when you try wheels like that or something rarer/untried on a MK6 or very recent VAG car, but I think you've pulled it off very well.

Probably see them used a little more often in the next few years.

Did you get the Yokahama Advan Sport V103's in the end?   Any feedback on those? 

I can't wait to ditch the contiSC2's that came on my new vRS - was happy with GY Assymetrics2s on the old car but always on the look out for alternatives.

the 35 came with Contis SC2 and they are an improvement on those, prob will run Eagle F1s on stock rims to compare

i ordered from Demon Tweeks as they could do a better tyre deal and in reality were just a joy to deal with, they order these from TSW Europe

TSW Europe site allows you to check stock

picked up the new daily driver this week to replace the Fiat 500TA, needed a more door so went for a Polo Blue GT in Blue Silk metallic to cope with 20k a year of commuting and to take the strain off the 35 and Pirelli (which should be making way for a Mk7 GTI PP) and pootling (hence the reg), spec wise went for:

xenons
anthracite wheels
sensors
privacy glass
auto climate
RCD510 and MFSW
Passeger airbag

only mods are to swap the bury bluetooth out for an oem VW one, possibly retro fit fogs











first run down to London and 48mpg on the trip which was a surprise (35 has been doing around 36mpg on same run), 1.4 is really well matched to the gear box and car has a surprising amount of torque and they do seem to bolt them together well
