Might get a good deal on some 165 45 15s but I'm doubting it's safety. Car in question VR Jetta.

yeah, that shot was taken at 7:30 this morning. just pulled out of the garage, and wanted a clean car pic. The car is dropped a good amount, and can barely fit my finger between the tire and fender.

why 15's are the absolute best size on a mk3

so simple, and yet so perfect

**richbvw** · 02-21-2012 05:04 AM

Having gone 16", 17" and 18" on my VR I have decided to go with 15s after spending some time on vortex.

We tend not to see many mk3s on 15s over in the UK (apart from stock) but I started thinking about it after seeing you guys getting your cars looking great on them.

Heres mine, just bolted them up and now its time to take them off to refurb, get some better tyres and sort the stance.

Specs.
15x7 staggered et teledials
195/45
fr et23 rear et8 after adapters

**ConfesS4** · 02-21-2012 05:18 AM

I am in LOVE with your interior!!! I am dying to get a set of seats that color for my Dragon Green 4door....
Back on topic though, I will be going low on 15s in the upcoming weeks

once my Street+ coilovers arrive!

Really dont have like any photos at all with the matching wheels on, only just swapped the front gear over to the vr6 gear, was rocking 4x100 14 in steelis on the front with the vr6 5x100 BBS on the back for months, haha.

When I had the 14s on the front:
