Anybody go for the 15" black spoke wheels on the high up? They look the same as the standard silver spoke wheel on the VW site. I wondered how different they were?
Yes. Saw them for first time last Sat. Big disappointment = not at all what I was expecting. There was another High up! nearby with the alternative 'standard' wheels and even the Dealer found it hard to tell the difference. They are a little darker but are certainly NOT 'black'. I'd say standard ones are silver, these 'high gloss black' are dark grey (or anthracite as earlier posts).
I would NEVER have chosen those wheels anyway (what? with 20 spokes to clean !) I thought from the pictures that they would have a 'bright' face to each spoke, but I now realize that that would have required the description 'machined'.
So, as far as I'm concerned, a waste of £100. Could have put it towards the £5.99 I've got to spend at Halfords on a stick-on plastic vanity mirror for the driver's sun visor.
