Hi folks over the last couple of days I've got my new rims fitted and also done a good six hour detail. They are boavista 17" rims from the VW polo R.line. Ordered some alloy wheel weights http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/X10-60G-QUALITY-TRAX-STICK-ON-WHEEL-ALLOY-WEIGHT-BALANCE-SELF-ADHESIVE-STRIPS-/300841441547 because i think the ones a lot of tyre places use are rubbish and go off in no time ( bring back lead weights) so with my own weights in hand i headed to the tyre depot to get a set of Kumho ecsta le sport KU39 fitted, so all in all i'm very happy.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

This last pic shows a skoda rapid towing eye cover that just fits nicely on a fabia.

 

 

Thanks for looking folks.

 

 

 

 

 

 

Lovely wheels! Car is looking epic. Where did you get the tow eye cover from?

Thanks ally it of a skoda rapid part number is 5JH.803.663 so the next time your at a skoda showroom have a look at the rapid. It blends in with my rear mud flaps perfectly.

Love the alloys, I wanted the Polo R Line but I felt it was too pricey for what it is.

Like the look of the tow hook cover, would look good on the Monte with having the black diffuser.

Thanks gaz, yeh the only thing i had to do to make it fit nice and snug was to wrap some double sided number plate tape around the towing eye were the plastic cover pushes onto and job done.

The wheels look very cool the car looks very good

Car looks good mate, amazing how much a good set of wheels can set a car off.

Is there a part number for the cover, looks smart.

Wheels look great.

Very nice indeed O.C.D. I like them a lot! I think I'll be getting one of those tow eye covers soon too!

Sorry, car looks mint too! Good job

Looks good that does mate.

What wheels did you have on before? What have you done with them?

Really like the look of those wheels.

 

Anyone going to put them on a vRS?

Thanks dude this is a picture of the ones i had on before but they sold v.quick because they still had the factory conti's on which only had done 17500 miles, and the rims were in perfect condition.

Thanks for the comments. I was lucky enough to find out on the grape vine that a lad had these on a new polo 6R. but was selling them cause he had put a lovely after market set on instead, he had kept the factory tyres for his new rims so it was just the rims i bought, got them for £750 that's not bad IMO considering VW sell them for £415.14 each inc vat.(without tyres) Part Number: 6R0601025A

Your car does like alot better for the new wheels mate. Money well spent .

I only asked about your old wheels, because if they were the alba ones and youd got them for sale, id of popped down n snapped em up for my SE! Haha.
