I think the Sapphire with Escos wheels looks excellent!

escos also look good, but i got 17" tyres already to use.

tkrath:

The second picture down with the flame is awsome. Is it okay with you to copy and email to a mate (me and a mate swap pictures we find).

I'm thinking of getting a set of comp. mo's (17x8) in the greyish black colour, forgotten the name of the colour. They'd be going on a moonstone blue sapphire but not fully sure it they'll suit. Your thoughts (everyone)

mind you, you need a 5mm spacer to clear the 4 pot brake caliper, and if you want to go to bigger brakes in the future you will have problems (they were designed for single pot sliding calipers). same is true of escos wheels.

for good looks /big brake compatibility / trackday strength, go for compomotive mo's.

DOO - the middle alloys would look great on my 3 door!!

this is the gospel

Saph's look best with Escos OE wheels , or RS7's.

3 doors with OE wheels, or Compomotive MO's (16 or 17's in gold on a black or moonstone one - white or black on a white one)

Escos with OZ SuperT 18's or OE wheels

I think the colour of the car plays a part in which wheels look best on it.
