A few years ago I would have loved this, but not my cup of tea…Sorry.
I dont really like the wheels, maybe that's it.
Sweet car though.

Dont like the rims either to be honest :dontknow: , 15 or 16s look best in deep dish on a mk1 imo, like ATS, BBS, or BORBETS

I like both the car and the wheels on their own, but I don't think they're really suited to eachother.
The rims would look nice on an old Merc or something similar I reckon.

MISS I'm afraid. Look too big and the grapevine says 17's ruin the handling on a MK1.

Plus get a new set of arch spats from Crazyquiff as no doubt soon you realise that that area will chip for fun, plus it will hide the holes lol
