[ROGUE]

I just let out a little bit of wee.....

I love the shadow chrome wheels.

Any way of getting that here? Can the stock rims be "painted" or treated to get that look?

$1275 USD a corner...made by BBS

Not bad. That car is looooow.

Need centre covers. Looks crap that low!

[Swallowtail]

I agree in that I think those rims would look better with center covers. As to looking crap that low... mmm... I don't know, I don't mind it actually. Not usually into super-low rides, but that looks OK I reckon.

[Rocket36]

The front is too low. I reckon leave the back where it is and raise the front so the ground clearance is the same just behind the front wheel, and just in front of the rear wheel.

[gead]

too low to be practical, for sure, but i reckon it looks awesome slammed like that...the wheels really suit it i think...chunky and big, but not too bling....tough


fwiw, even the lambo doesn't come with centre caps...

My 13 year old son reckons its "soooooooo cool".

That tells me a) the rims are too large b) the ride is too low and c) the ride would be harsher than his Arrow go Kart!

The 20" x 9's have the wrong offest for the Passat @ ET60, although the 19" x 9's may fit as their offset is ET40 (standard is ET44) which will mean they stick out an extra 4mm + 12.7mm - as they are 1" wider than the stock Omanyt's and will have an extra 1/2" on the inside and outside of the rim, so an extra 16.7mm will stick out from the standard rims. I think you would have rubbing issues and also they would probably stick outside of the guard.

Hi Lance, so the standard Omanyt's are 18 x 8 with offset of 44? does that mean +44? or -44 (I know nothing, obviously, about wheels)
The reason I ask is I already have 245/35R19 tyres and want to know what offset I should be looking for in a 19x 8.5" rim ?
The tyres put me about 8mm above stock diameter but were necessary to exceed the load rating requirement (minimum 95, these are 9 so I'm in the unusual position of needed to match wheels to tyres not the other way around!
Strange, the sily should be an 8?? must be something wrong with my computer
cheers

couple more shots of this beauty i found....



that colour is the sechs....

Awesome colour... but I'd probably still avoid it, same reason I didn't go for black again this time.

But those black chrome wheels!! We need those as an option. They would absolutely make my white car!

Anyone know if they're available?

those wheels are stock like that, there is no such thing as a centre cap

&

its called stance, makes it look aggressive *somthing most cars lack but i wont point fingers*

Nice thread, I love that White wagon with the Lambo wheels, looks like it was 'meant to be'. Perfect IMO.
