[NAiL05]

Those corvette wheels are getting popular with the vw crowd. Looks good.

[F20A CB7]

nice! ill turn the blades the other wat around. like gs r blades

Nice, My buddy had an 01 4dr he bought from a used car dealer with full suspension and a BOV already installed. Damn that thing handled tight.

Too bad he totaled it; rear ended someone while texting.

Looks really nice. Those are such nice cars. I'm not a big VW fan, but when I worked at a dealer, we had an 07 Golf on the lot and I loved to drive that car.

There's a guy in my town with a dark blue 4 door Golf like yours and has the same wheels in white. Yours looks way better.

looking good, i see alot of these cars real nice no dents or dings and they slap a rusted hood on em, odd, but works

[wed3k]

if those are saw blades, which ones are the salad shooters? my nugget yellow corrado is sitting in my garage atm.

Yeah they are a bit "Played" but they are one of the very few budget options if you want a wide wheel with lip. And not to sound conceded but I feel I pull them off better than 80% of the other Mk4s that have them. Thanks!

Thanks! I've seen that before but I feel it flows better with the body lines of the gti to have them facing this way.

yeah it used to handle pretty good when i had H&R springs but being as low as it is now the suspension geometry is completely screwed up and the axles bind and rub on the frame so handling has definitely gone out the window hah. But when I step back and look at it I remember why i comprised.

Thank you very much. Yeah mk5's handle great. I really wish mk4s had the same IRS. In that case I wouldn't have put it on the ground. And thanks again! yeah I'm not a big fan of 4-door golfs and think sawblades only really look good in silver.

Thank you, yeah I've seen a few that really pull off the rust hood. Many hate on rust hoods but I think they look pretty cool when it's incorporated into a theme.

Salad shooters are the 16" variant



look better on mk3's and would look good on a corrado too but I hear they have very low offsets that are hard to work with

[Daheavyking]

Looks great man!!!
