17"s or 18"s? (or even deep-dished 16s??)

Post by kaliboy »

I've set my heart on some wheels which are 8 & 9 17"s I know this will be okay but I've since seen 18"s might look better on the B5s.

I've got a 110 tdi estate so putting bigger wheels on the car will make a difference to the performance. I know they will increase the top end and help with consumption on a run but I know acceleration will suffer too.

I don't want to put wheels on that are too big and have a car that struggles to pull away.

What's everyone's opinions?
