Hi,
A few months ago I bought a 67 plate Golf GTI with 19" Brescia alloys (factory fitted) along with the DCC. If I'd bought the car new I'd never have even considered the bigger wheels, its just how it came and it was otherwise a good car.
Despite having the DCC, I don't think I'm going to be able to stand the 19" wheels on our terrible Scottish roads - the hard bang that you get when you hit even a smallish pothole just puts my teeth on edge. But I do like how they look. I'm considering going down to 18" or even 17" wheels... but I think the standard GTI wheels are a bit too "common" for me. I'd just store the original wheels until I come to sell, seeing as they're original factory fitment for this car.
Suggestions and advice appreciated please!
