The fake split ones look ace Brummy! Not a huge fan of the massive 6-sided bit with the VW logo on it, but still. Might be cool to paint the centers the same color as the car?

Summer ones look pretty nice too, but I have no idea how they'd suit the car to be honest :p

the fakes were literally an impulse buy.. so cheap due to them being pretty battered, but something to do on those evenings after work when sat in the garden with a beer ;)
have run the idea of colour coding the centres, but have a few other options too ;)

The TH's will probs be clened/rubbed and sprayed silver to get through this summer then we'll see what next year brings for them. have the rubber for them in my shed so no biggie on that side.. just need the time/weather for getting them done.

Ollie, if your talking pretty much straight swaps, talk to me, other than that, cash is tight man. Nath.. Im probs older than you, so im reliving my youth ;)

And Sammy-Kins.. the fakes are 15 (would i go anything else?) by 7" and have 4x100 and 4x 108 settings. I'll stick spacers on the rears to enhance the look when they on. ;)

for sixty quid Suj icgaff if i ruin them ;) .. ill'furb them up some over the summer, couple of quid on autosol , couple of tins of spray, so easily sub 100 quid all in as ive got spare rubber in the shed ready to go on and the car should look relatively reasonable for the crappy months. popped out in the Goof earlier and the thought of getting shot of the cookies crossed my mind, so you know where that will lead if i do..

Dan (orangeMuffin) had some of them on his Vento.. they look tidy rims. :D
Ive just been cleaning my Exips of all the brake dust etc so i can give them a quick spray up in the next couple of days (weather permitting) and they may well be back on as im fed up of scrubbing the tyres on the cookies, whilst im getting something sorted with the Comp's
