Winters now fitted, think they suit quite well although a little small.

They suit very well indeed. And, because of their design having such big areas of alloy, they don't look as small as 17's.  :happy2:

Personally I like them as a Winter wheel but wouldn't want them the rest of the year, style-wise.

Cheers RR. Agreed, I think by March I will be excited to see the Monzas back on! Got these for a good price though and will allow me to take time on getting the 18s refurbed and shiny again over the colder months.

Yup new rim. Looks a bit shinier than the others!

I take it you removed them from the car before selling it? (you did sell the Golf, didn't you?) I expect they'll sell quickly, as trying to find a used one after the above was like searching for a golden rocking horse egg!

Sorry chief, just caught this by fluke! My bad.
Yep it's gone (to user 'adamsin', a good mate of mine) so still in the area. Not seen it on the road yet  :sad1:

Yeah looks like they're popular. They're rare in 5x112/18x8 but seem to be sprinkled round jap forums and eBay in 5x100 and 17".
