ludwig Posted October 14, 2008 Report Share Posted October 14, 2008 I'm thinking again about get a set of Detroits. I just think that they look great on a white GTI. I'd be grateful for advice on what I should consider when getting a quote from the dealer e.g. centre caps, wheel bolts, tyre valves ..... I'm planning to have them fitted by a good tyre shop with Vredestein Ultrac Sessanta 225/40/ZR18 92Y For those who may not know, these are the matt black Monza type alloys with a 1mm "silver" machined edge to the outer edge of the rim.

Matt R Posted October 14, 2008 Report Share Posted October 14, 2008 Whereabouts are you, I can probably do you a good deal! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
paul130TDI Posted October 14, 2008 Report Share Posted October 14, 2008 Hope this link works!! I remembered seeing a white ED30 with those wheels on, managed to find it on the dealers web. I have seen the car since the pic was taken, minus the bonnet stripe / black bit, looks much better Used Volkswagen Golf 2.0 GTI Edition 30 Hatchback 5dr - Isaac Agnew Volkswagen probable didn't work, im sure you can copy and paste into your browser Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ludwig Posted October 14, 2008 Author Report Share Posted October 14, 2008 Matt R, thanks. I've sent you a private message. Ludwig Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ludwig Posted October 14, 2008 Author Report Share Posted October 14, 2008 Paul, yes it worked! Many thanks for this. Very useful to see. I enjoyed looking at it - and the spec of the car. I do like that black bonnet, always have done. I think this is part of the Abt? tuning boys livery. I suppose some would say its a bit "boy racer". But I think my wife would go nuts if I had it done! I haven't even told her about the Detroits yet ..... :-) Ludwig Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tarmac_Terrorist Posted October 14, 2008 Report Share Posted October 14, 2008 I think it might possibly have been MattR's dealership which supplied the black wheels for the AutoExpress test car (red Ed30). I think those wheels would look excellent on a white GTI Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ludwig Posted October 17, 2008 Author Report Share Posted October 17, 2008 T_T, thanks for this. AutoExpress really did like those wheels didn't they. I've not had a response from MattR yet. Ludwig Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
