The OEM wheels aren't the best and can buckle fairly easily.

Pointed out in an another thread that I certainly wouldn't pay big money for Helios now, you can get four sets for the cost of OEM. I had a set in my Mk5 when they were fresh news and they literally used to stop traffic

There only £150 new, I wouldn't have paid any less than £100 to have an OEM refurbed.

The OEM ones also weigh a frickin tonne!
