Stuck this in random because I don't have a mk5 but would appreciate some opinion.
Current running these CVR 5 spokes in the summer.

I kind of like them but by the same measure I'm not blown away by them. I like Neuspeeds and eventually I might get a set but am interested to know what else you might think suit that I haven't already spotted. I like CH/VZ wheels but they don't look right in 18" on the Skoda and I'm not going to 19". I've seen Rota have increased their offering of 5x112, I also spotted some dirt cheap Inovit but have no idea what these are like or if they are to be avoided. What else is out there that doesn't need a four figure budget and doesn't weigh more than the moon?
