    18 inch Pretoria alloys from VW - how much?

    Hello all

    Has anybody purchased alloy wheels from VW? Noticed that they have available 18 inch Pretorias in silver or black on their website, as an accessory.

    From research it seems they’re not lightweight or “forged” like the 19 inch they throw on the Golf R Wolfsburg and Special Edition.

    Still, they look good and I’m keen to hear from anyone who’s purchased some from VW directly!

    Cheers

    In case anyone is also wondering, I’ve got the answer: $1820 for 4

    I had an idea that the 18" pretorias are a much brighter silver then the "Audi blue/silver" of the VW 19" pretorias.

    I’m a numpty, no idea what that is. But they’re the exact same size as the stock 18 inch GTI rims.

    Yeah they’re way brighter. Wouldn’t mind if they were the same colour as the 19s, would look good on my white GTI. But the “sterling silver” is too much. Black for me
