    just figured id make a timeline so i dont feel the need to start a new thread whenever i get something fun. anywho, ill track back to the day i bought it. this past april. 09 jetta s. 5 spd manual.

    me with my first new car pose

    i soon after bought some wheels which i had a helluva time trying to get on. i didnt like them and needed smaller tires so i sold them for a big profit.

    i then lowered it using these

    and got this

    rocked the steely look for a bit, but eventually got bored. bought some roof racks and went camping with it.... not a good idea when youre just under 24" from ground to fender arch.

    now, i just ran across an amazing deal on some sc430 wheels. and picked them up today. so here they are. no tires yet. will come as soon as the funds allow it.

    more will be added when more fun things hit my door step.

    i hope so, only thing i have to figure out is what tires to run. they are 18x8 et 45 all around. wanna keep the same size tire for rotation purposes.

    Nice! I have always wondered what those wheels looked like on a mkv! I think some gli sideskirts would really set your car off!
