Tidy looking motor dude, I wanted to do a readers ride thread but the amount of stuff I do to my car it wouldn't be worth it lol, the thread would end up getting deleted

Probably same here but hey, at least it looks nice

Great little base to work with. Nice set of bigger wheels will do wonders for it

Thats why im thinking 17" Audi RS4's, however I dont want to go too big because it is already low on power with the 16's, however I never drove it with 15's...

gezmeister said:

If going for the rs4's, i'd go with the older style. The newer, sleeker style doesn't suit the lines of the leon imo, but the guy i got my leather interior off arrived in a red cupra the same year as yours on the older style rs4's, and looked awesome

My mistake im talking about audi rs6 wheels as seen here...

gezmeister said:

Ah i see. Yeah the rs6's suit the leon well, lots of users on here have/are running those

Yes I like them, however we go have a spare set of rs4's in the garage that I could try and see if I like them but not sure they suit, they are this style...

gezmeister said:

Thats the style i mean, much better for the leon than the new ones. I say try them first, what size are they?

Click to expand...

They are 17"

gezmeister said:

Will be loads better. If they have tyres on, just stand them up next to your car to see what they'd look like roughly

miht try that, ive only seen one MK1 leon with them on and wasnt a huge fan though

Like I said, just afraid to jump a size cos its sluggish enough with 16's on

Now considering the Leon Cupra starfish wheels...
