V5 Toledo (again)

[H & H 2.3]

right, more wheels choices - opinions needed please

Golf GTI's

New RS4's

New RS6's

 

[Tolly]

I think I like the GTI ones.... The RS4 & 6 are a quite open design which IMO do not suite the Toledo so well.... The more solid looking wheels look pretty good..... Saying that though the TT QS wheels look well on black cars

the golf gti ones look awesome

i really like the GTI ones but would prefer to see them on a Tolly before i bought them - could anyone photoshop them on to a silver Tolly?
Progress on mine over the weekend was i've now got my coilovers on and i'm very pleased with them although i may need to adjust them a bit further after changing the wheels. I'll get some pics on later today after work

 

[Tolly]

What's the ride quality like.... my 1.8 20v is a quite soft.... not sure if the V5 set up is any firmer as standard.....

 

[H & H 2.3]

It's definately firmer with the coilovers on but not bad at all. I've only ever used lowering springs on previous cars and would recommend spending the little bit extra and getting the full kit

 

[H & H 2.3]

Right, i've decided on the wheels and ordered them today

18'' Team Dynamics Equinox in Anthracite

although i feel i will also be getting a set of Golf GTI's as an alternative set

I really like the idea of the GTI wheels. I found a photo of a guy i knows toledo with a cupra bumper and a better pic of mine with the lower bumpers colour coded for you to compare.

Yeh, i think i'll definately get a set, mind i think yours looks superb as it is.
Seeing the Cupra bumper and the Cupra R wheels, i don't think it suits them although it might just be the colour that's putting me off

 

[richard150]

I do wanna change the wheels, one of the ones on it is cracked. Im not all that fussed on the cupra bumpers and things on toledos. There are along nicer things imo to enhance the look of a Toledo.

I like the wheels you have picked.... will look nice.... have you taken any pics of the car now its lowered or are you waiting till you get the wheels on....

Haven't taken any yet mate as it's a bit too dark when i get in from work - i'll get some at the weekend and hopefully the wheels should be on in about another weeks time

 

[H & H 2.3]

Home from work earlly so managed to get some pics, here goes

can't wait to get the wheels on

 

[1.9...stefan]

nice height that its.... how much lower could you go ???

 

[H & H 2.3]

it can go low enough so the tire is hiding behing the wing but with the stock wheels it just doesn't look right. I might be adjusting it again once the wheels are on

 

[1.9...stefan]

low then... whats the ride like.... although will change again with the smaller profile tyres on

 

[H & H 2.3]

the ride is fine but like you say, it'll change when i get the new wheels - the tire size i'm getting is 225/40/18

 

[Tolly]

It looks good... I am doing it the other way and trying to get some wheels before I lower it..... Think I will deff get the coilovers though so I can adjust the height to suit.....

My mate had a toledo, he really liked it but it was only a 1.6. I couldnt belive how much room there was in the boot.

 

[H & H 2.3]

Well i've eventually got my wheels on and here they are
