Wheels and a Mild Drop. - My MK6 Jetta TDI Build Thread

[SinlessVillainy]

when i saw the first pic of the car, it just reminded me of The Hangover 2, LOL.

the nice part of this thread is still yet to come.

the wheels are not bad. what do you think of the rotiforms nue concave? i think suits the body IMO

That's actually one of the wheels I've been looking at. If I go with another set of 19" wheels, it will be something with a lip. These with no lip seem to look way bigger than they are. Most likely I will end up going with an 18" wheel.

As for color, I've considered color matching white. However, today me and a friend were kicking around the idea of copper on the wheels. Just something to go with what's going to be in the trunk.

Drew is the man! Can't wait to see how it turns out

IMO 19 is not the correct size... I prefer to see wide 18's than thin 19's, but this is just my opinion

but you have a really nice car

even with the coils it wasn't low enough. But now that your installing the bags, good on you bro!!! will make the car stand out alot more.

Interested to see where this goes. Wheels aren't my cup of cake, but NBD

Yeah, I really think of these wheels as a placeholder for something better. My goal early next year is to finally commit to a set of wheels. I've got about 4-5 different wheels in mind. My problem is every week I change my mind on which set are "THE" wheel. Plus, a couple of the sets cost more than a year's worth of rent, so it's tough to talk myself into pulling the trigger on them.

When I saw the first jetta pic I was scared that you had bought a 2.5l. I've driven so many of those stupid slow ass 2.5s at work, and was going to say fail. Then I saw TDI, and became happy.

Like you, I can't wait for more progress on this car. Planning on doing anything with the fenders for the bags?

I'm not sure yet. I'm going to wait and take a look at it once the bags are on to see what I'm working with at that point. But you never know what might end up happening. Hell, 7 months ago when I drove it off the lot I didn't think I would bag it.
