alright, so little update from today. went to get some tires swapped, from the corvette wheels, to the works, and they ended up ripping the sidewalls of the larger, rear tires.
so, since they fucked up, they ended up giving me a deal for two new brand new tires...
now the car has 205/40/17 tires all the way around, on a 17x9.5.. looks AMAZING! there is still a little bit of rubbing on the drivers side, but that will all be sorted out tomorrow when i install the idf drop plated (they add 2 degrees of camber, and center the rear wheel on the quarter panel!!) and also pull the fenders a little bit!
got the front perfect where it should be! rear is still a little high until tomorrow. the front also came down about another 3/8" because of the lower profile tires! pics:

I know about the beam, its a common thing on mk4`s but i dont find it disturbing. Really like the front end, don`t see that a lot

the rear beam really needs to be centered... its not center.
the fenders will be PULLED this weekend, and then its going in to get them repainted soon after that anyways. that's why we weren't really worried about toasting them a little bit. hahah.

welp. they are finally on. headed out today to get him some new tires. these tires are WAY too tall... its going from a 205/45 to a 205/40 all the way around. with these tires, it raised the car about 10ish mm all the way around. smaller tires will let us bring it down a little bit more!
ill let the pictures talk. ha.
and just a few random shots from last night.

welp. finally got a new set of wheels!!
work vs-xx
17x9.5 +16 with 205/45/17 tires. all the way around.
needs some fender work, but they should look AMAZING when they get fitted. =]
they came off of my buddies car. he just picked it up a few days ago.
just in case you are curious, yes, the jetta will be as low as the gti is.. just need a few other items to work out first. the gti is on air, and the jetta is literally just as low as it.
but, these wheels/tires raised the car up about 1" from where it was, so we will see.

Attempted a new headliner. It looks like poop. We will redo it later.

Looks good dude, it's nice seeing a clean simple mk4 that's not sticker bomb everything with freaking neon wheels and rust hood so congrats to you sir
