Help me make up my mind...

I've definitely decided on 18's for warranty reasons. My vans due next week. Indium grey T32. Bilsteins are going on as soon as I get it but I can't decide on what wheels to have. I fancy something Matt black. I like the new style sportlines but the all black ones are glossy. I don't fancy any polished wheels as they'll look gash a few months down the line when the lacquer is fooked. Any ideas

Don't discount gloss black too soon I think it looks smart with Indium grey imho

Surely worrying about warranty when you've replaced the suspension is a bit of a non-issue?

My concern is with the DSG gearbox. I don't think the suspension will have any bearing on that where as it could be argued that bigger wheels will.

I love 3SDM’s and if I didn’t need my van for driving down tracks I would get some.

VW will use every possible excuse to avoid doing work under warranty.
Only my thoughts.

What are the wheels shown in the picture? They look like the Fox Racing wheels I had on my Volvo , which are sitting in the corner of my garage waiting to go on eBay. They look quite nice, I'd never thought about putting them on the van. The winter tyres on them are weight rated but my other ones are. They could be my new winter wheels.

Edit: Not weight rated.

After seeing pics of the new sportlines corroding I've brought a set of these.
