Find me some alloys!
« on: May 30, 2015, 03:43:19 pm »
Currently on anthracite 18" Monzas, which I just can't get on with.

Car is a 2007 GTI 3dr, colour coded skirts and ed30 front.

Right, I'm torn between two styles. Firstly the popular Pescara/BBS VZ option. Then my old favourite 7 y-spoke CH-R type of design, which I had on my mk4 (Dotz Exile)...



Now after seeing how common the Pescara/VZ has become, and being wary of inadvertantly turning the car into an ed30 replica, which I really don't want, I'm not 100% on this option.

Equally, after seeing quite a few examples of mk5s with wheels like I had on the mk4, I'm not totally sure they suit the mk5.

So... does anyone know of a wheel that's more or less a combination of both? Not quite as 'rounded' as the Pescara/VZ, and a bit closer to the CH-R?

Cheers :-)

Not a fan of the CK, they're a bit spindley.

The CH-R is a bit more in the direction of the Pescara in comparison to the Exile I had on the mk4, as in the joins of the spokes near the hub are more rounded.

Just want to find something similar to a CH-R but with the curves of the Pescara/VZ.

There must be something!

The wheels on your mk4 look similar to vmr 710
Take a look at vmr wheels they do some really nice ones you might like
