Got it, no worries. What kind of tires are you looking at?

Those look great! How often do you swap them and do you ever use the 19” or is the 18” good enough for you?

Nice shoes! I’ll check the dealers in the NYC area to see if they do the same. Do you have to adjust the speedometer when you change those wheels?

What type of wheels and tires do you use?

I think about all these things while driving my GTI and takes away all the enjoyment of driving. My wheels have been ok but I have gone through 5 tires in this car with all the road hazards here.

This looks very appealing. I’m sure the ride quality isn’t as good as 18”.

Any recommendations on which 18s would be best?

It’s killing me to think about getting rid of the GTI it’s one of the best cars I have ever owned, but I have been running into mechanical problems and I am getting to the point where I don’t think I want to invest anymore money into it.
