We should consider it an even trade since VW/Audi gave us the 924

Mine will be similar to this white golf with 3 differences

1) mine is not that low
2) the wheels will be gun metal grey
3) my tires are not that rubberband like

As I pointed out in the other thread, If it's rice to put Porsche wheels on a VW, and putting cheap/low-quality wheels on a car for appearance is rice, isnt it rice to put cheap/low-quality wheels (like cup replicas) on our cars or use spacers to fit wheels that were made for later models?

There's alot of name calling going on lately...

Of course, the REAL question is what were you doing in the VW forum to begin with?

VW guys have mounted cookies on their beetles for a very long time now. I think Porsche wheels on VWs is very appropriate.
