It's not different though, Bentley rims are so played out. They're in the same bargain bucket as Lambo doors and M3 wing mirrors.
No matter where you go, there you are.

Im not saying Bentley wheels are different in the VAG scene, almost as played out as BBS RS in the VAG community, but ive never seen a set on a C5,

Im not getting my titties hard anymore of seeing RSes on stock wheels thats for sure..


So i dont quite understand why some guys are so determine to burn this guys thread down..

P.S. I haven't met Golfather either but when I do, I will still call him a <beep> to his face :D.

P.P.S. From seeing that Pistonheads pic, those rims have grown on me eeeeeeeeever so slightly but that is only down to not running the B centre caps methinks.

Tis what makes the world go round. Just need to take the rough with the smooth and don't bite. Only time time you can bite is when bookfather shows his face with saftness.

Waiting a dozen and a half pages has to be a record then lol.

I know there are a plethora of general cars with Bentley wheels but if you take a cross section off the usual wheels to appear on an RS6 then imo mtm's and OZ's become far more 'played out' and I hate that term. Its almost as bad as scene, stance, stanced, stancing, hellaflush....

I like my cars low, I think in general a car looks bettered lowered.

I'm with you about the lowered, but not too low. Imo when wheels start disappearing into arches then that's a poor look.
Wheels are a real hard thing to get right on the c5, even a colour change can make them look awful. I spent ages looking for a wheel that imo looks good on the c5, and that hasn't already been used. I have only seen 4 non oem wheels that look good on the c5, footers oz, bams her, mtm bimotos and mine :lol:

Why 'slam' it to hide the wheels :idea:

Edit, that car needs slamming in a crusher.
