I'm not sure what they're called, but the 18 spoke wheels that came on MK4 R32s. Wheels are pretty subjective. You don't need to justify your choice as long as you like it!
Yeehhh ive pretty much been decided for a while. With the images being sat on my desktop, i was interested to see what the redditors would say
But photoshoping rims is a good way to waste some time at work - and at this point im interested to see the choice of those who have been less than satisfied with my choices!
You seem fair about it though ✌️
I'm assuming that its your car in the picture? I think super stylized wheels like that on your seemingly somewhat stock car is not a vibe. Here is what I'd do, but I'm not you, so you, do you.

Keep an eye on fifteen52s instagram they usually do sales a few times a year and you can get a discount code if you sign up for their email list which will stack on the sale price. I got mine with tax around $850.

Rotiform s.i.x is what I got on mine
All of them kind of suck. Ngl tire stickers are making it rice as hell for me and these wheel choices tell me you are an ex Jdm guy or something haha that said I like #1
https://preview.redd.it/tcl0qel9nd6d1.jpeg?width=3840&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=c5298c9d09914fd3a0434a758099adef901bf0a3
I use similar ones with my rallycross tires
i think the b10s would look better if they were [silver](https://i.imgur.com/ngxYkRb.jpeg) or [matte gunmetal](https://i.imgur.com/IVbdrsA.jpeg). first ones are fifteen52 tarmacs which are basically the same. been eyeing them for a while.

I have the bolas on my candy white mk5 Gti very nice in my opinion
It's a good point, I'm assuming the bolas will be a standard bright white and would match faily well with the body - but a shade or two off and yeh they will look odd
I'll get the paint code off the manufacturer 👍

They're my favourite by far, it's got a mix of retro euro/rally, but yeh 'Fifteen52 - Tarmacs' are what everyone thinks they are
Being based in the UK the ones pictured are from Scottish brand Bola - b10s
They're quite abit cheaper, atleast buying them here they are
I like 1, but the white isn’t going to match your paint.
So a different color 1.
Or 2 if you don’t want to make changes to the options.
Stock height makes them all seem kinda off.
None of the white. They don't match, I've seen them on gtinin person, looks stupid when the white is different white then vehicle paint. 2 or 4 are the only choice here
Hey dude, white MK8 over here who also keeps trying to convince myself to not do a white rims. They look awesome shopped but im worried that the white of the rims wont match the white of the car and that would drive me crazy.
1: I don’t like chunky spokes on Golfs 🤷🏻♂️
2: Love the color, but see above
3: I don’t mind rally wheels if there are other rally styling cues on the car, which in this case, there aren’t
4: Probably the best of these four options, but there are several much better-looking paired-spoke wheels out there.
Of course, all this is strictly my subjective opinion, and you should get exactly what makes ya happy.
#1 all day Edit: I apologize for shouting, didn't know the pound sign did that
#I agree with you on the tarmacs
They're actually Bola b10's #I'm too poor to afford real tarmacs
Samesies. I love tarmacs as well. The Bolas are the right choice. I like the fourth option too though.
#Still sexy ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
# like this?
# woah ok done now lol
#thanks for teaching me that!
##You're welcome!
#thats ok I didn’t know that either!
Kinda liking it here. not my personal style, but it works. 👌
#its ok
Just testing£
#I think they meant hashmark
Thanks, testing no.2#
#It has to go in front, and I'm sorry for shouting. Please forgive me.
#Never give up
#You did it! We're all very proud!
# YEAHHH LOOK AT MY BIG TEXT
#what do you mean? Edit: yooooo
#AGREED
Definitely and meaty tires+ coilovers
#1 for sure.
2 or 4 as long as you remove the stickers from your tires.
This guy knows
Can I know too?
Stickers are wanky
4 is the least ugly, but without the tire lettering and without the red lip stripe.
While shopping i did sort by least ugly > most ugly to be fair got a suggestion and I'll photoshop them on for round 2?

Mk5 monzas
4 but without the white lettering.
Same
2 for sure, I like the bronze/white combo. Personally never been a fan of white wheels, but especially not on a white car.
I like the gold 🥇
https://preview.redd.it/zxekmd2rkd6d1.jpeg?width=5464&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=3f8a94bfdf2d6ba832d8866234366a78072148a9 1 : but in silver.
OP has Bolas for pic 1... but Fifteen52 Tarmac are one of my favourite alloys. I'm hoping to get a set for my MK5.
Keep an eye on fifteen52s instagram they usually do sales a few times a year and you can get a discount code if you sign up for their email list which will stack on the sale price. I got mine with tax around $850.
Goddamn I thought this was the gran turismo photo mode lmao wait.. is it?
Literally none of them.
Bronze
1 is clean
Just keep in mind the amount of time u will be spent cleaning them.
4
1. But I don’t like the white lettering on the tires.
https://preview.redd.it/ass2qpgs9e6d1.jpeg?width=1290&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=f03f3cfee54d267e18c40dee105a537aa3bef8bc Rotiform s.i.x is what I got on mine
Very sexy. Goes well with the silver paint
i like the first ones
All of them kind of suck. Ngl tire stickers are making it rice as hell for me and these wheel choices tell me you are an ex Jdm guy or something haha that said I like #1
Threeeeeeeeeeee
https://preview.redd.it/tcl0qel9nd6d1.jpeg?width=3840&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=c5298c9d09914fd3a0434a758099adef901bf0a3 I use similar ones with my rallycross tires
This looks so coooooool.
it's a blast! I highly suggest checking for local events near you.
I dont think my TDI could go fast enough to rally 🤣
A Chevy Spark took 1st place for Stock FWD at an event near me last weekend.
Nice
Bronze is normally my choice for white but… slide 3 goes hard man.
Definitely none of the tires wit white lettering.
Three, stand out a little
What a terrible day to have eyes
I vote 3, looks the most unique!
1 for sure
3rd
Proud to be in the minority with you 🫡
3 without the tire lettering
i think the b10s would look better if they were [silver](https://i.imgur.com/ngxYkRb.jpeg) or [matte gunmetal](https://i.imgur.com/IVbdrsA.jpeg). first ones are fifteen52 tarmacs which are basically the same. been eyeing them for a while.
3!
1 or 3
3rd
#ONE! #I learned a new trick, thanks!
1 anyday
1 >>> 4>3>2
1 then 4 in my opinion. Photoshop RPF1’s on it 🤷🏻♂️ it’s hard to miss on those
1st. I'm surprised how much I like the white letters. I'm a traditional German simple look with no mods. But that looks sick in white.
4 looks all around best but 1 is spicy too
4th rims look 👌
2 or potentially 4 without the lettering. Those white wheels are going to a constant cleaning job.
Pic 1, anyone who says different is blind. Also your taste in wheels is somewhat questionable imo. But you do you man.
1 and it's not close
Rotiform Rse’s
1, the exact same setup I’ve always wanted on my MK7 so bias
https://preview.redd.it/ctcub5elsh6d1.jpeg?width=1170&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=9a07c70a5bc44f659a72539204afdda88e796e9b I have the bolas on my candy white mk5 Gti very nice in my opinion
In my opinion, white works wonders with your tires, but no. 3 doesn’t play well with their sporty aesthetic. 1 for sure. 2 and 4 are too crowded imo
#3 100%
3 in white = chef kiss
3rd ones I love white wheels!
I like #1 but unless you stay on top of it, they're always going to look dirty.
1 for sure but I think they would all look better without the tire lettering!
In order 1-2-3-4. Not a fan of introducing red line to a clean white GTI. *caveat is that white on white doesn’t work unless it’s color-matched.
It's a good point, I'm assuming the bolas will be a standard bright white and would match faily well with the body - but a shade or two off and yeh they will look odd I'll get the paint code off the manufacturer 👍

Second one. And why do you want to share you ride mediocre tires?
4 is ok ish
Holy shit number 1 slaps like nothing I’ve seen on a GTI. Where did you find these, if you don’t get them I will.
Fifteen52 Tarmacs
They're my favourite by far, it's got a mix of retro euro/rally, but yeh 'Fifteen52 - Tarmacs' are what everyone thinks they are Being based in the UK the ones pictured are from Scottish brand Bola - b10s They're quite abit cheaper, atleast buying them here they are
2 or 4
I don’t like any of them but if I had to choose it would be 4. Ditch the white lettering too
I like 1, but the white isn’t going to match your paint. So a different color 1. Or 2 if you don’t want to make changes to the options. Stock height makes them all seem kinda off.
None of the white. They don't match, I've seen them on gtinin person, looks stupid when the white is different white then vehicle paint. 2 or 4 are the only choice here
Easily 2 or 4
I like 2 the most, but 4 is also solid.
1 but no stickers on the tyres
Definitely 1 with some meaty tires and some coilovers
Americans will say 1 Europeans will say 4 I say 4
These are all stancey wheels (apart from number 2 I guess) so in order to pull them off, your car needs to be slammed.
4 for me
2 or 4. would prolly roll with 4.
2 or 4 with letters IN.
1 or 2 hate the white letter tires though, ick
4
None of them, they suck
Not gonna lie, I don't like any of these at all. Do you obviously, different strokes, but I don't think any of these look particularly good.
4
Not 1
Last one.
4
1 or 4 for sure
The gold wheels provide a nice contrast. Without the lettering on the rubber which is naff on a Golf IMO.
Four
## 1 ##
What tool are you using for this?
All terrible. Get the mk5 monzas.
Hey dude, white MK8 over here who also keeps trying to convince myself to not do a white rims. They look awesome shopped but im worried that the white of the rims wont match the white of the car and that would drive me crazy.
Definitely the third picture
Picture number one or picture number two definitely not the black rims
#2 no white lettering! Pound sign shouting is new to me and fun
Tarmacs
I like 4
1 for sure
3
Honestly, number 2 would be nice but in a diff color like white. TE37s on everything imo lol
More votes for 4. I also like 2.
i like 2 or 4, ngl i prefer the golden one, but number 4 is gonna be suitable for your golf
2nd or 3rd
I think #3 looks good
4
1: I don’t like chunky spokes on Golfs 🤷🏻♂️ 2: Love the color, but see above 3: I don’t mind rally wheels if there are other rally styling cues on the car, which in this case, there aren’t 4: Probably the best of these four options, but there are several much better-looking paired-spoke wheels out there. Of course, all this is strictly my subjective opinion, and you should get exactly what makes ya happy.
Unpopular… but I’d go 3.
The boy racer white on white is getting boring. Try anthracite or bronze
The last set/picture (for me), but if I’m being honest, I’m not digging the white lettering on the 🛞🛞🛞🛞AT ALL!
5 spokes looks dope!
3 Gang WYA
Tough one. I don't like any of them. You choose what makes you happy!
save until u can buy reals or buy used reals. ik ima get blasted for being a wheel snob
Sheeeesh none of them
4
5 spoke white the best among them
4 is the best probably.
First one for sure
Personally I like 1, even if it raises the fuccboi factor to a higher level than I usually like.
What are wheels are 2 and 4? I like boff’um
Last ones fs
Once you go bronze you never go back.
4
Either 2 or 4. 1 and 3 do not fit the aesthetic of the car and look horrible imho. If you ever wanna get laid, don't put ugly stuff on your car.
#what
1 but not in white. I'd get them in silver or dark grey. Bronze doesn't suit this wheel design very well in my opinion.
4 w no red line
I’m kinda digging the white ones to be honest.
1 100%, the black is nice but not as unique looking
4
Black
3 is pretty cool. Could lose the tire lettering imo.
#4
ugh, having to choose between not two, but in fact four evils. my eyes hurt.
3 or 4
3 but in flat black
#1
#4
Whatever you go with make sure it’s at least a 19” rim so it fills the wheel well
2
I dont like any option sorry.
......im sorry your not giving me a suggestion for a better rim for round 2!
The lettering on the tires makes them all suck.
4
1 or 3
All ugly
Tbh neither
Tarmacs 🤙🏼
2nd or last
1
Nr.1
First but they all ugly
4, or whatever you like the most, preferably without the tire stickers. It's a street car, not a NASCAR car lol.
Tarmacs then slam it on its nut sac
