Name: Mal
Location: Newcastle
Golf Model:Mk3 VR6
How I found VWgolf: JDMST

A few little pics courtesy of Burgs' equipment. "Adolf" isn't a minter by any means but in time I have some reasonable plans to get it up to scratch with a lot of the European Mk3's. Ok perhaps not that intense, but there is plenty to do over time.

I have these to go on, am sourcing adapters to suit as they are Porsche fitment (so keen to get these on!!) They may not be the normal style you guys like, but I am pretty pumped :)

Specs:
15x7 ET23 (F)
16x7 ET23 (R)

This is a nice little elite forum, plenty of talent and taste for quality (cars, watches, photography, even offices!) and look forward to a good stay here. Hopefully jump into a Mk4 R next year, but that's well away.

Hope to see some of you on Sunday :)

Thanks for the warm reception guys :)

Well the Black BBS have Bridgestone AdranalinRE001's on them so I plan to run a few hillclimb's at Ringwood with th MG Car Club as a pre-cursor to some other events hopefully. They are also their as a second set when rubber/fitting issues arise on the gold BBS. Sorry Kooki.

Specs are 15x6.5 ET43, 5x100PCD with 57.1mm CB though, so if you fleabay or are looking for a set around the internets, that's what you are looking for. I was tempted to try some WRX wheels, and the Liberty B4 wheels are BBS RXII's I believe in good fitment.

I'll get on to a build thread soon, there really isn't much done to be quite honest.

No problems :)

Use a "wheel offset calculator" if deviating too far and are a bit lazy to do the maths to see how they will sit too....
