Changing alloys on a mk3

[Anna_S]

The mk3 comes standard with 16" silver alloys, but I think it'd look better with black ones and perhaps a 17" alloy with a lower profile tyre.

Has anyone done this? Does it affect the ride at all?

Also, does anyone know of any good places to get new wheels for a 5 from?

Thanks

polished rim looks good on a silver 5, but there is something so about the black ones, thanks for postin the pics!!

i'll probably see the guy tonight and ask if he has anymore pics - like i say, the last time i saw it, the car looked even better than that (the top one with the black wheels) - i can ask where he got them too
