Do 17" inch rims look to small?

[dylan8]

i think 17s are ok depending on the style, the stock bora 17s and wheels such as BBS RS look good (not just becuase i have them...) otherwise 18s you cant go wrong. depends on the colour and finish also, bright or machine finished seems to always look bigger in my mind

On Sydney roads in particular, 18"s would be a PITA.

The right 17s look fine. These for instance:



And the Bora Sports look nice too:



(Which I also happen to have a set of)...

Manaz: They are R32 rims aren't they? May I ask how much you payed for them?

I think mine look a little small, but I have faith they will look alright when I drop it. If I had bigger wheels the ride would be horrible on my roads as is without lowering. Mine is obviously still 4x4 ride height. For now

They're the 17" version - they were an R-Line factory/dealership option on some Mk4s/New Beetles.

I have a receipt from a dealer for $2800...

I like my 17"s but I'll be going to some BBS 18" when my tyres are worn out

Here was my car on 17s and stretched tyres
