Default Been offered a spare set?
Just wondering about these wheels?

http://i215.photobucket.com/albums/c.../Photo0796.jpg

I'm selling a 1998 1.0 Polo and have been offered these as a swap.
Now, I'm wondering if they will fit and will they look OK or just silly?
The other thing is the seller has sprayed them black !!!!

I was just thinking about using them as a winter set and not to have them as an 'upgrade'.

What's your thoughts?

Cheers

Steve

Well each to their own but they don't float my boat, i think they'll look odd on an 8. Maybe photoshop them on to see what they look like?

Don't be paying for the tyres either they look too small

It's one thing a Golf driver putting A8/RS wheels on their car but another an '8 driver putting Golf wheels on an '8.

They look like replica MK5 GTI wheels, I wouldn't in a million years. But each to their own. How much you selling your Polo for?

I did have a wee shake of my head and realised my mistake

Selling the Polo for £450, I'll chuck up a thread for it if you want?

Please do, I may be in the Market for one as a runabout. Not 100% right now though.
