Im trying to be abit different.

The fact that i can pick a set up cheap is good factor aswell.

Everybody says get VTS alloys but thats the whole point, i want to be different not what everybody else has done.

17's bugger that up. Putting on wheels that size will wreck the car.

GTi's are good because of the 0-60 time having 17's on would mess that time up loads.

the standard ones are 14's and also the 205 alloys are 15's.

I think 80mm will be too impractical, i do want to actually get around in the car without having to go really really slow over bumps

will look smart if u even kept them on, but as you can get them cheap u could still just use them as track wheels, but id keep them on, i like them
