depending on what you're after. If you're more after looks get bigger wheels, if after car performance go for smaller as lower unsprung weight and better handling for the alloy

 :ashamed: :ashamed: :ashamed:

I apologise…. I read the thread title wrong. I thought you were asking about CH's or CK's.

The CH's or CH-R's  :drool: will both look Amazing mate  :notworthy:


I'd  definitely get 19" though, and either Anthracite or the Silver will look awesome on a Grey golf.  What golf is it BTW? MK5? Ive never heard of cool grey thats all  :popcornsoda:

Sorry it's steel grey (cool grey is a Subaru colour) car is a mk5 gti 3 door

I'm going for bright silver as the anthracite has a silver lip which I'm not a fan of.

So going for CH-R's in silver 19" by 8" wide with et45 rite choice? Tyres 225 35 19

Anybody a link to this screw delete mod?

Is it wise to fit 225's to 8.5 wide wheels or should I go 235?

Is et45 the best offset?
