[Gert]

Ur still a faggot Robbo
Ship the wheels and the tires to me !!!

Good boy :D

[evilnyntje]

Did you pollish them yourself?

[René]

wow!! looks really COOL!
are those real whitewall tires or are that rings?
top work!!

[vwleusden]

Wow ! it's a nice combination !

[envy]

The wheels are just colour coded and diamond cut, not polished. I had them laquered as they are going to be my main wheels for a while and we're getting lots of road grit lately.

Tyres are just budget 195/45x14 with wegu rubber inserts.

I just need to get a 4th cap so I can get them diamond cut too.

[Stijn]

Looks good, not sure about the whitewalls though.

Never really thought of this before, but are all four teardrops always the same? You'd have the same problem as with Porsche Turbos, the wheels would look reversed on one side of the car if they were.

Are caps that hard to find Robbo? Should be loads of 'em in the States, right?

[envy]

All 4 wheels are the same, meaning both side point different direction.. oh well, so did the P's.

I had to buy 4 more teardrops to get caps as all 4 of the caps on these were bent. One of the caps on the second set was bent too. I have been quoted around £40 each for them from vagparts.com which is £8 or so cheaper than VAG themselves...

[berendd]

looks really cool!

where do you buy the rubber inserts, white wall rules!
I hope my set of centra's will look as good as yours in a couple of weeks.

[Pedaalemmer]

nice wheels!

now your done with your rimms...clean your back window ;)

[envy]

I haven't washed the Polo for 2 months... That pic was taken after driving a round trip of 400 miles yesterday... clean pics to come!

[Tjaap]

you're hot...... and so is the car

[Tjaap]

I could be wrong, but I allways though Envy is from the UK, as in: United Kingdom. Not United States.

Or have I been fooled?
yeh but teardrops came standard on every other car in the US, and he has enough contacts there to obtain some

[antraciet]

the rimms are looking good with the whitewalls, thumb up :)

looking good on a notch aswel..^^

[Stijn]

I know Robbo in person, I couldn't mistake him for being a yank, certainly not with a big ford ambulance appearing in every picture he makes. He has some good connections in the States, like Jaap said.

[Tjaap]

the ambulance is gone remember :p

[envy]

you know what... that damn ambulance sat next door to me for 7 years and yet I couldnt tell you what make it was, yet I'm pretty sure it wasn't a Ford.

and, yeah, maybe I need to sort some caps out stateside..

[Tjaap]

wasn't it a britisch Leyland? like the predecessor to the Sherpa?

[Stijn]

Bedford? Whatevah, it was 100% British :p

[envy]

It was a fucking eyesore, that's what it was.

[G40Rob]

LOL!!

Wheels looking good Rob! Haven't seen you in a while, that a new grill I see?!

Oh, and does that mean you now have a spare set of teardrops? :wink:

[envy]

yup, I have a spare set of teardrops minus centre caps!

[envy]

some better pics..........
