Title: Pictures of hellios?
Post by: George10 on June 07, 2013, 09:17:58 am

I'm thinking about buying a set of hellios, but I'm not 100% on my colour car (grey)
Does anyone have picture of them on their car?
Would be much appreciated if you Post your pictures

Thanks
George

That's always been my favourite pic of a Mk5 shod with Helios, great stance and awesome wheels even if they do weigh as much as the planet Earth.

Haha.. I really like them on every colour golf, but I'm a bit unsure with them on a grey car.

They look great, ruin the driving experience though imo.

I saw these on your car and it made me want them ha..
How much?

They weigh something stupid like 20kg, that's why the Golf will drive poorly with these fitted...

That's a lot of weight for a wheel

they weight 32.5 lbs / 14.7 kg

compare that to a BBS CH 026 for instance which is 24.3lbs / 11kg

both plus tyre obviously

They've grown on me a lot since players yesterday.
Does anyone know if Porsche 996tt brakes would fit under these?
