Hey Guys and Girls, I looking to upgrade my MK5 rims to something much better looking I want to paint it in gloss black, 18 Inch something similar to the R32 rims something oem quality or better but cheap let's say under £300 without tyres I don't mind it being second hand. Please send me your ideas please

I have these. Can remove tyres as I could use them anyways.

Finding rims for your car is honestly the hardest thing

I don't have one. I bought them as spares/ track wheels and they don't fit over my brakes properly

I seem to remember a firm that was very popular in the mk4 days for reps, especially BBS LM. I'm sure they were regarded as quite decent, weight and quality-wise. BBM or something like that..?
