I have a black MK2 gti . . . . . . .

they are ok.....

but there are much nicer wheels to be had

plus the wolfrace brand is a Halfords special

 

[Gm8]

yeah I know , just looking for something slightly different but still subtle .

 

[MarkJ]

Don't like them to be honest. This place is just down the road from my work, never knew it was there

 

[goble]

horrible

16" super t's always look the best

 

[HarveyGTI]

if you want something slightly different then dont go for wolfrace

whats your criteria, bling and smart or dark and rally slag?

general rule of thumb is if you buy alloys with black middles and the spokes don't go to the edge is you have to go up a size otherwise they give the illusion of looking too small

hehehe i said a 'possible'

if you get a wide enough rim they dont look too bad but better on brighter colours

personally i love compomotive mo's

going euro on them you mean, wide rims and slammed - now you are talking

in that sense, yes that rim you picked out would look lush

Listen to the man, he talks sense

 

[Mckellar]

wolfrace wheels? different ? lol they dont go together.

Broaden your horrizons mate, look for some 2nd hand porsche/merc/audi etc wheels and adaptors

well wikid et iz!

 

[Gm8]

my prob is that the car aint worth much , so dont wanna splash out much on wheels . ive painted the standards white , may get them powder coated and drop it 40mm . i just dont know

 

[Boi Ninja]

hmm, keep the standard 16s ...get back spacers and drop them 60ish all round ...ser-weet!

 

[HarveyGTI]

ok, well why not get them reconditioned in an anthracite or black colour?

see here for some examples

Wheel Refurb Clicky

for 16's and to be sprayed one colour its £24.50 each, so thats under £100 for 4 wheels to look bran spanking new and IMO is prob the best idea as it keeps the car looking reasonably standard but more in a concours type condition

Depends where you live though - but had my wheels done there and they came out looking new!

Remember that thanks to the joy of forums that your wheels retain their value as long as you dont damage them - good wheels will always be worth $$, you buy them, love them, let someone else have them - you wont loose much.

I saw those wolfrace's at the top on a new type r civic, they looked absolutely wicked, if they didnt have the gash bling bolts and even worse wolfrace badge (brand ***** i know) they would be nice wheels.

if you liking that, then go with momo

white wheels take alot of cleaning and more treatment than say a set of silver alloys, so thats something to bear in mind

I would go all black if I had a MK2 ibiza again
