Don't we have a thread like this already? Called the "Aggressive Wheels Thread"?

this thread isnt about just wheels..its about the drop, the wheel height and width, tire size, fenders, lips, bumpers etc

yeah me too. i had a 337.got sick of the "if you don't mod like everyone else your car sucks" attitude people have over there. though it is starting to seem somewhat similar over here. i think your going to see a lot of similar stances on this site just the because VW scene is more about how low can you go with performance secondary and the evo scene is kinda the opposite

I8ursti, that Evo is gorgeous, the ONLY thing I would do on that is try to push the wheels out to the edges a little bit more with spacers, I just wouldn't want to do any fender rolling. Nice man!!

I know exactly what your talking about. There was this one jack hole on the MKIV forums that thought he was king of the VW's. He was nothing but a post ***** who thought he was special because he had like 6000 posts. He drove an automatic 02 1.8T Jetta. Gah, just thinking about him now makes me want to punch a baby.

That and I hated how ANYTIME I went to a VW meet the other people would get offended if you drove fast or got on it at all. Why mod your car if your going to drive it like a granny. OOOOh, that's right, it's because your car is so friggen low you can't go over a pebble with out ripping off your oil pan...tards. I don't miss the VW sceen at all.

I've decided that it's time to do something with the stock hight. I think I'm going to run some Tanabi GF210's this year, or Swifts because those get rid of the wheel gap to. If I don't like just springs I'll save up over next winter and get coils.

I want performace first with good looks secondary but right behind. I've yet to figure out what to do wheel wise though. I want something not common but nice, and since I have a GG (soon to be wingless) I think I want to run a dark bronze with a small lip...who knows...

Car look sick! What size are those rims/tires and on what spring/coilover you lowered on? You got quite the amount of negative camber.
