clean VR, nice stance... but for the love of GOD get rid of the GHASTLY wheels!
they really dont do the rest of the car justice!VW: it aint just a car, its a way of life

i love the clean look, dude, and wheels are totally subjective, but i would have to say in my opinion, the chrome of the wheels takes away from how clean and tidy the rest of the car is.
but i reckon the wheels themselves are a pretty nice design- i imagine that if they were a bbs style bright silver, or a VW optional alloy style silver, they'd look really good in an OEM+ sorta way.
keep it up, though- your VR is much much nicer to look at than mine was, lol.

Untill i find a decent set of factory vr6 BBS rims, they have gotta do! 17" are too big anyway, they scrub at full-lock...

VR6 BBS's come along sometimes and they ususally are pretty cheapVW: it aint just a car, its a way of life

ET43 is the correct offset I think unless someone else wants to correct me? Whereabouts in Adelaide are you? I know the guys at bridgestone golden grove pretty well. Might be worth confirming the fitment? I'd suggest 16inch as being the best compromise for the car.

ET43??!!!!! Hell no lol!
It all depends on what look your after.
16s are an optimal size on a MK3, so a 16x8 +20 would sit very nicely, flush with the guards with a 205/40sigpic
