I like those a lot.  Really love the black/polished silver contrast on wheels, like the Monza shadows etc

Would only really suit a black car though I think.  That was the problem I had when I was buying alloys for my Graphite Blue TDI they had to be polished face silver or they would look cack.

quite like having 17 "s on have had 18 and 19 in the past but think they suit my gt td sport.
cheap tyres and nice ride  , even my wheel arch gaps are quite small
quite fancy these has my car is black otherwise i will have to get my wheels refurbed which will be a couple of hundred to get done properly

OP what wheels do you have at the moment? If it's VW Classixs then why not refurb them in black as they look pretty cool, plus it would be cheaper than buying that new set of alloys anyway!

There are loads of nice wheels in 17s. I quite like the oem "grand prix" style

Not to my taste, but it's your car and if you like them, that's all that matters!
