Remember the old school?
Konig Remember wheels on ebay...
16x7
4x100
35 offset
73 hub
black/polish or gold/polish
Is the 35 offset too aggressive? I think a 205/50 16 would be money on HSport springs... Maybe a little tiny bit of trimming on the fender in the back... Awesome BBS style look, though... You can't find anything like this anymore...
If anyone hooks these up, we need to see pics right away!

Update
After another few months of looking at wheels, I've gotten in the groove of the BBS styles. Browsing VWs over at vortex has shown me the light. But, a set of old BBS rs or rm wheels will cost a pretty penny. Here are two examples, both around $1k.

Various offsets and lip sizes, which are interchangable, make for a lot of possibilities, but it all adds up in cost. Plus, I've heard of multipiece wheels loosing tire pressure among other problems. Getting them to look like the shot below would be really nice, but not realistic for a daily driver:
So, the Remember wheels are more attractive from all standpoints. Here are a few more angle shots that are posted up on ebay:
Silver looks great. I just can't see doing an open spoke design like I see on every other car around, no offense.
Any other input, anyone?
