I must be living under a rock or something. I have never seen or heard of C4 wheels on VW's.

[quote=MitsuJDM;7340744]People have been putting C4 wheels on their VW's for awhile now. They honestly don't look too bad. QUOTE]

truth. been done a million times in the dub world.. they are all about "poke and stretch." vette fitment wheels are commonplace.

that is nothing new guys, my buddy's got a mk2 GLi with pannasport rims on it, 9.5 wide wheel with a 215 tire



i only think it looks silly from the rear

i'm also hardcore into vw's, coming from a 30r'd 1.8t GTi and my daily now in an mk4 TDi golf.






i'm actually in the process of trying to work out a deal on these Vette wheels

VW people are just dumb imo. Why stick wider wheels on the back of a FWD car There are almost as bad as honda's...hell I see more fast honda's than I do VW's. They are slow, break down all the time, and have hideous wheel taste. I guess they call that Euro style...only in the VW world imo. Most other nice euro cars do not do that...or atleast to that overdone extent.

As for the urinal rules, most guys put way too much thought into it.

To actually get the tire to start pumping air and holding, we had to use the "Tire Cheetah". It essentially blasts 160psi to be able to "pop" the bead up to hold air.


From there I needed around 95 psi to get it past the bead sealer.




I did not mean for this thread to be about other cars tastes, just really weird putting Vette wheels on a VW imho.
