Black 5 Door - what should I do?
« on: December 25, 2010, 09:12:44 pm »
I have some BBS alloys on my car, whoch I hate (18's I think) I want to changhe them for something....NICE! I want classy look.

What would you guys recomend?

I like(ish) this look...



What are these? are these standard 18" Monzas re-done with black inserts?

Will I look to common?

P.S - Only have the car 24 hours lol so am clueless :(

Yes they are monzas with black inserts. The car is Greeners but the rims now belong to me.

The LMs IMO suit the GTI and aren't as "common" as the Monzas.

The GTI isn't just a machine. It's very much a living, breathing thing.

clicky

I'm presuming here that your car came with these rims and now you want to get Monzas? Almost all BBS rims look good on the GTI and this includes the BBS Monzas.

The GTI isn't just a machine. It's very much a living, breathing thing.

Stealth, don't put Monzas on your lovely Eddy! The fact that your car is almost untouched styling-wise is a very rare commodity!  :wink:

Sorry for the thread jack Johnny   :innocent:

A bit late!



Having said that, the Monzas only go on on special occasions.

@ Stealth, I take it back, looks very nice  :notworthy:  :drool: I still love the Pescaras though  :laugh:

@ Johnny, silver one has 19" reps. Look the biz but very rare you'll find 19s.
Both black ones look like 18s. Perfect drop on the top one IMO.
