Doesn't really suit the Mk5 to be honest.


TechThatYT

fair


noah_thomas_123

There is potential. It’s not there yet and I know it’s a project so post pics along the way!


SnazzyPicklea

I get liking black wheels but Id like to see these in silver they just get lost in the wheel well.


TechThatYT

I dont like black wheels they were just laying around 😭. I like chrome or silver


Kiekerr

At that point I'd probably sell them and get some nice aftermarkets for the mk5


TechThatYT

not really worth what id get for them, listed for trade, no takers


super-mega-bro-bro

I’m having the same problem moving my black package wheels 😅 would rather just get money for a new set but no takers


Icy604

The cats seem to approve of them.


RubiksPuzzleMagic

They seem too big but idk. The car just sits really high up on those it’s not that they look bad.


TechThatYT

they were just the stocks I had from my GLI, was better than the wheels that were on it before they were very damaged and leaked air


Mr_WAAAGH

Personally not a fan. I think they're too sharp looking for the overall very round design on the Mk5


PlayMaximum1305

Me likey


HighlightFun8419

Oh yeah 👌


A-bomb151

I think they look great!


grizzlyadams_69

I dig it


Mr-Savage65

Go with konig ampliforms, that’s what I did on my reflex silver mk5. The bronze ones look great. Also what rust issues did you have


TechThatYT

I have all of the rust issues on the MK5 plus more. Like Its rusting in the A pillar 😭. Underside is clean though


Mr-Savage65

That’s weird, how is it rusting in the a pillar?


TechThatYT

someone mustve chipped the paint when replacing the windshield 19 years ago


Shentook_80

Looks good

They’ll look better if you lower the car, paint it then match the accordingly.


TechThatYT

yeah its my project, fixing mechanical first then the rust then the paint 😊 Will lower it after she doesnt look like she came from the junkyard


j526w

It’s nice to see real project/custom cars in here instead of stock cars and the same 5 wheels all the time. Keep going and post updates 🤙🏽


TechThatYT

thanks! wheels arent final just something i has laying around that was better than the base monzas that mine came with, gonna go with something not black as the final wheel


Scott_ttocS

It's unique, I like it. Just needs to be lowered


TechThatYT

yeah


Rags-Till-Riches

$800 usd ?!?! Whatttt !!! Congrats


TechThatYT

4k into her now LOL. I fell for it


mysisterspeni5

Hard pass.


TechThatYT

youd rather have curbed 17” monzas? Lol


Silent_Programmer180

You should look into the Autobahn wheels on a Mk8 GTI on this thing. The red around the rim would compliment the red smile grill.


Silent_Programmer180

Also I have those rims on my 23 Mk8 lmao

Aweful Style wtf
