Can anyone find me a picture of the above?
I think I know what I'm thinking of, but I'm not positive.

No, I'm alright, Long. I'm going to have a look at a couple of 216 GTis in the next week or so, and one of the owners mentioned to me that he has a set if I should want them at any point.
I just wanted to make sure I was thinking of the right wheels.

I used to like the 5 spoke gti turbo starfish type alloys the most thought they made the car look very purposeful and solid.
Weirdly though i think the lattices seem to have dated less than the gti 5spoke design
Anyone agree?

You think the Lattices look newer than the roversport 5 spokes?
Pff noob.
I have to disagree LondonMX, i think the 5 spokes are so clean and simple they can never age
that much, but the lattices are very very 80s.

A fine excuse to post up a pic of one of my old cars
A lad i used to go to college with had the lattice ones fitted to his 216 gti.
