Re: DSG with CHROME Mach wheels!!

OK well nevermind. I saw the guys car today. They look pretty decent actually. I wouldn't say they are the best wheel I have ever seen, but nice nonetheless. Depending on the deal he offers I think I'm going to take em'. Thanks anyway fella's

Re: DSG with CHROME Mach wheels!!

Well I'm not the biggest fan of them but I saw them on another DSG today and was suprisingly impressed. I like them, so hopefully he will get with me soon and I will make the swap, and I'll post some pics, cause obviously there isn't any online. If someone has a pic I still like to see it. I found one but not really a good shot.

I think they look good. But of course I could be biased.

I'm biased also, In my HO the stockers look the best... but those wheels do look pretty **** good on your DSG. :THUMBSUP:

My car looks identical. I have 17x8 Chrome in front, and 17x10.5 in rear. Hey, where do you work? I work at Rancho Spring's in the ER. I relocated 6 months ago to Murrieta off of Winchester(79N).

I'm a fan of chrome, but not on the mach 1 wheels.

I work at RPDC. If I ever have to go to the ER the closest hospital is Rancho Springs so make sure you take good care of a fellow Macher.

Re: DSG with CHROME Mach wheels!!

I got the wheels. I love them!! The finish and fit inperson are so much better than pics. I have the 17x8 all around. I think I'm going to shop for the 10.5 rears asap. But for now they look pretty sharp. I have recieved compliments one after another since I put them on. I just wish there was some chrome items to add to the car to make the wheels not stand out so much, but without chroming the scoop I don't think there is. I'm happy and thanks for the pics provided!

I am running chrome 10.5's on my rear and 9 inches on my front. They look great on a DSG Mach.

Hey, where did you find the chrome 10.5's in the chrome mach 1 rims?

Re: DSG with CHROME Mach wheels!!

The thing I like about the DSG is it has a slightly larger metal flake in the paint. Combine that with a good chrome or black chrome wheel and it really looks stunning.

Not as good as a Torch Red, but good none-the-less...
