Fitted the new wheels at the weekend. Much happier with these, suit the Mk7 better I reckon. Will get the winter tyres on to these for next year and use the Cadiz for the summer.

I withdraw my previous statement regarding the wheels. Looks well.

Is it sick ??

Put the charger on it last and it started this morning, but the rev limiter, OBC and fuel gauge weren't working! Still hoping it's the battery. Left it in to hopefully get the parking sensors working, glow plugs and some fuel pipe changed too.

I think they look a bit lost on it tbh. They look very small on the Mk7 but perfect on the Mk6 and Mk5 IMO, I can understand why you wouldn't want to go for 19's though.

19s would always look better, but I have zero interest in choosing style over function these days! Hence why Ive still got 18s on the TT too.

Wheels look really well on it (y)

Just watch them on the potholes on that Dromara road, it's getting beyond a joke now, dangerous in places!

I've yet to experience an R also so if you're ever passing give me a shout!

Yes it's wild, the new gas track has it ruined :worried:.

No bother, must get a look at the barge too!

I know why you changed them but I prefer the standard ones. I think they look lost in the arches.

Yes don't get me wrong I still prefer the originals, but need a spare set for winters.
