After seeing my brother fit his new RS6 alloys onto his MK4 Golf it has made me want some new wheels a lot more.

I'd been after some for a while, but wasn't desperate. My bro got his for a good price, new tyres fitted aswell, and told me that there having a sale, also they do next day delivery!

Im interested in peoples opinions and views on different wheels. I'd only really considered RS4's but im open to suggestions, also i'd like some views on the 'common' factor. I do think RS6 wheels on MK4 Golf's aren't exactly rare, but what about RS4's on a MK1 Leon?

Here is the car:

It has been lowered 30mm although the pic doesnt show it very well.

Suggestions would be great!
Thanks in advance.

Oh god! There are hundreds of threads! I feel bad for not searching now!

Thanks for doing that Keany!
i attempted it a while back. :lol:

Im not sure on the amount of spokes now, the LCR standard alloy's have the amount nailed i think.
RS4's i think have just too many.

Way down on my list of mods I have planned some Kei Racing Force 10 alloys in anthracite/gun metal grey. I think, other than BBS which cost a million pounds, they look mint on a Leon. Personal preference though, as always, but just a suggestion.

Thanks for that andy! I was searching for a thread like that!

I want to know how much difference the Cupra bodykit adds to looks with certain alloy's.
I must admit i'm liking the R32 alloy's although they look like they would be beyond a pain to clean!
Just wandering if the side skirts and bodykit in general complete the look.

Also what do people think to black alloy's?
My car is red so they would go, but again it's not a Cupra.
