mirrors update .. they match now
« on: April 09, 2010, 05:34:32 pm »
after getting my wheels refinished in dark steel my mirrors looked a bit "odd" so i got some oem covers from ebay in gloss black but they still was nt right so i got my mate to spray them audi quartz grey


  they are a shade lighter than my wheels BUT that was done on purpose cause they should be a perfect match for whats being delivered tomorrow ........................ :happy2:

where are you guys getting them from?
Rimstyle or PW?

would you recommend a 225 or a 235/35/R19 for a mk5 guys?
prices seem to vary between these sizes depending on manufacturer. Falken little difference, £10 difference for a goodyear, £35 for a vreidstein.
