Pic request
M having a bit of a dilemma regarding wheels on my S1
I think in going to stay standard but are there any pics out there that might change my mind?
What are the best wheels for an S1?

diamond cut 16" RS7s work and keep the OE look as 17s are too big and the 15s just look too small

Escos wheels look mint but ive heard the escorts dont drive well on these wheels. Them 16in diamond cuts look well.

Datapost are certainly different! Montes are nice and would match the escos but look terrible at the rear on that car,
I bet arches would need to be cut to go lower which puts me off.
Thanks for all the suggestions though guys

There was a S1 with Rondell's I remember from a few years back - looked as good as any S1 I've ever seen.

Depends on the color I think. For a white S1, standard or 16" diamond cuts are the only options I like, but against the black the 3dr rims look awesome!
The compomotives on the datapost would work great on a race replica or somesuch, not sure how they'd look on a standard example..

Those are 17" but, due to the offset, I feel they don't fill the wide arches enough on a S1 and are suited to the S2 more so.
Comp MO5 old school flat face 16" or 17" get my vote
