Hey guys,

 thing i would go for your first choice of alloys...the bbs alloys are nice but every boby is puting them on now.........

oh welcome to the forum

Nice selection there mate. I'd go with the CO's, love that style.

Why have you decided on 17's? ride quality?

Cheers

 co's for me, i know what mixitrol saying but imo you can't beat bbs's. i'd go bigger tho, at least 18's. having driven the mk5 on 18's i can say ride quality definitely wasn't comprimised

 Hi fellas thanks for all the good replies, Yan, yes I'm veering towards the 17's simply due to ride quality, fuel consumption (I know I'm driving a diesel with good MPG but I wanna keep it that way, you guys know how much fuel costs these days and I don't see it getting any cheaper!)

But also veering towards 17's because I'm not looking to lower my car and I'm not sure if 18's would make my car sit too high??

In other words if someone was to really talk me into the 18's and assure me that all of the above would be hardly noticeable then I guesss I'd really be spoilt for choice with options for 18 rims, as there are so many that would look the part.

What do you guys think should I be disregarding the 18's altogether, do you think some nice 17's would be a good comprimise seeing as I'm rolling on little 15's at the mo?

Thanks once again for your input.

 i have 17's on my tdi..look good to me...but i am going to lower it thou

 Maxitrol, isn't your GT TDI already lowered as standard compared to the normal TDI?

What type of alloys you got? any pics of your car?

 yeah it is lowered by 35m-the alloy are estorils

but because i ave amps etc in the boot the front is slighlty higher than the back

i'd definitely go for 18's tbh. as you said loads more choice and due to that you don't have to settle for second best and as far as i know nothing is compromised. drivability i can definitely say isn't and i wouldn't think they would fuel wise either. ultimately it's your choice and as long as your happy that's all that matters

 I will be selling my OEM 17" alloys next week + very good tyres, they are the one's from the GT170 TDI  - 17' Classis X's

 Hi Shane, what condition are the classicx in? That was my next question actually as I'd love some of them, you got any pics?

 I only picked the car up last week and they look as good as new, Michellin Sports all round and centre caps, will send you some pics

 Nice one Shane some pics would be good, what's the reason you want rid if you don't mind me asking?

 Go for the BBS CO`s or the CV`s nice light, good quality, not to big.

I have a set of the CO`S in stock for your car. I also have some VZ 031 wheels on offer as well.

Give me a ring for info
