18' 'Hufeisen' Alloy Wheels
1 - 20 of 23 Posts
I really like my 18" Hufs. They are easy to clean, I like the way they feel and the way they look. ....of course, I've never driven my gti on anything but them, so I don't have a real comparison. The only thing I really don't like about them is that snow/ice can get packed into them really pretty easily which causes a serious vibration until it melts out.

I know i'll be laughed at, but I'd trade my 18" for the stock wheels in a heartbeat. The 18" for me are much less forgiving with the ride, and much more noisy.

I LOVE my 18" "Huffs" I always thought they were a nice looking stock wheel... I wouldn't DREAM of changing them

Me either! I can't imagine my GTI without them. I cry a little inside if i try to.
i believe these are the wheels that come stock on the fahrenheit edition, they're really nice but your gonna feel the road a little more than the 17's...but not enough of a margine to make you just stick with the 17's
the huffs really are nice looking and still ride well so its pretty much how you like to ride, if you have the money and the forgivingness? then i'd def go with the 18s

i have the huf's and i LOVE them. very easy to clean, and look sharp when they're moving too! the two-tone look was a great idea too. when i went to look for one, they didn't have any of the 18s on the exact pkg i wanted so they swapped them on a different one. if you have to wait for them to deliver, it's worth it!!

I have and would recommend the 18" Huffs. A good deal at $750 upcharge. I test drove the 17" also and could not tell much difference in the ride. What I don't understand is why some folks are getting their Huffs powder coated, painted, or chromed. But isn't there a running line change to make the 17" stock a Huff look alike called "Denver"? I think the multi spoke is on its way out.

i love the 18in hufeison wheels. I think it would be like buying a "GTI" without the "I" if you didnt have them.......... :'(
Exspecialy when they are powdercoated black. Have you seen the black ones on this forum? One word, "Sexy."

yeah the Huff's are great. I'm a big fan of subdued and not fancy looking...if it's light and strong, it's good with me...screw all that chrome garbage that all the gangsta's are riding on these days...I hate that crap.

I too have/love the Huf's. I live in AZ where the roads are quite smooth, but during the drive back fro MI, I was pleasantly surprised about the ride quality. They do resonate a little on sharp impacts, but not enough to go without. The handling for a front driver still impresses me.
