Does anyone know a reliable discount distributor of Gotti rims?
I want to put P185/60HR-14 tires on my Scirocco (please, no "It
isn't worth it" flames) and need to get new rims.  My car is a
grey metallic and no BBS rim looks good on it, I've looked at
silver/silver, gold/silver, silver/polished, gold/polished, black/
polished, grey/polished and I don't like them.  I also don't like
any Weds, Centra, Ronal or ATS rims.  I do like the five
spoke Gottis, and have seen them in offsets for FWD cars like mine.

I am also interested in which is the best 60 series tire.  I guess
I am interested in predictable breakaway and tread life, rather than a
super sticky soft compound with limited tread life.  I am considering
the P6, P600, VR60, Comp T/A, and A-008.

How much should I expect to pay?  Any recommendations against changing
tires or for going to P195/50VR-15 tires?  (I don't think my poor little
VW is worth those)

The insurance survey has gotten over thirty responses.  I am busy
compiling the results and will be ready to post the results in a few
days.  Keep sending in those VISA card numbers.  I can almost retire
now.
