like!

what tyre size are you going to use? Have you rolled the fenders?

This is the dilemma as it seems most people are running 215/35/19 which I refuse to do (its still my daily driver). If I can't get them to fit with 225/35/19s ill most likely just sell them.

Fender screw mod in the front, but not rolled yet. We'll see what happens...

Get rolled before you even try... ask me how I know

Were you running 215 or 225? I may do the 215s for a few shows coming up and then sell em. I need something else to roll on (besides stock) while I get my TT wheels refinished.

I'm only running 225/40/18's on 18x8.5" ET45 and I have pulled the fender lips inside out a couple of times and I think you are lower than I am too.

i think this car just convinced me to do the badgeless grill/filled notch when my car goes in to get the front bumper shaved, real valance filled and rear fenders fixed

Looking at a set of 19x8 Alzor Turbine wheels. ET 45.

Tires are 235/35/19s.

They are only a few months old and the seller only wants $850 with tires so its a good deal.

Will they fit a 2011 JSW properly? I'm at stock height currently but that will change soon. Nothing drastic though....

[G3Variant]

Finally they arrived!

Bentley Monoblock GT

Made them ET45 in front, and rear they are stock(ET41) 225/35.. No rubbing!

Some crappy pictures.. Will take some better pictures when the sun is back.. Only rain here now..

[jeepwreck]

^^ thats very nice

[AlpineE90]

Probably the last shot with the TT wheels...Bentley 5 spokes should be on next weekend

[timmiller05]

Everyone is doing new things...im jealous

buying a house put a serious block on my wagen.

[Biggu]

I cant wait to get my new wheels, never seen them on a JSW and they are going to be awesome!

love this pic. nice shot and i like the irony of the vertical clearance warning sitting above your dropped JSW

well just think, ill be jealous when you have a house and all i have is a 3 sets of wheels for my car LOL

plus i think 18s are just a better fit for the JSW, so I'm gonna run the Bentley's until I get the TT wheels refinished then probably put them back...that is unless I absolutely love them

love this pic. nice shot and i like the irony of the vertical clearance warning sitting above your dropped JSW

thanks! it took me 4 tries to get that shot - 1 way bridge and I had to constantly move out of the way of traffic lol

[bcedhk]

Wow G3Variant that fitment is amazing.

Im sure you posted it before, but can you tell me what setup your running? is it on bags?

hah.. I'm trying to buy a car and it's seriously delayed any planned mods. I can't imagine trying to buy a home.

[kraftwerkb6]

Alpine, hope the new wheels fit and you love them, and then want to sell the TT wheels...... haha.

Tim, deff in the same boat as you, really jelly of people getting new things and doing stuff.
Bought a house, then got married, then honeymoon, paid off tv, couch, junk.
now want new laptop, roof basket, bike rack, new mtn bike, new wheels, turbo kit,
list is on and on. so dumb.

The TT wheels are gonna get refinished (3 out of 4 have curb marks, I bought em that way and made the mistake of switching cars with my ex-gf for a few days which just made it worse) after I get the Bentley wheels all setup. I'll basically roll on them for a bit and see which ones I like better. I personally think 18s are better suited to the size of the JSW, but love is a crazy thing

I'll let you know if I decide to sell the TT wheels

[Estate]

Love the dual exhaust.

[Jedidub]

Still one of my favorites because it's so subtle.

[jeepwreck]

i have not even taken possessionof my wagon yet, but i am already looking at stuff for it


how would this rim combo sit on a wagon


Front: 18x8.5" / Rear: 18x9.5"
Front: +35 / Rear: +40

is any one running this combo on their car, if so can you post a pic

Looks like I can finally post in here now... Put on some ST coils this weekend. My apologies for the crappy cell shot.

[SteveO@ORT]

VAG-FAIR next weekend?

Apparently, Wes has been selected for Madness on Midway...plus I can't wait to go to that burrito spot around the corner from the fairgrounds!!!

Buy my wheels!!

[CrisqoT.O.]

The reason I bought the Golf Wagon (JSW) was because I was spending too much $ on my previous ride (2 door sports car), and expanding the family .

After seeing the pictures in this thread, I don't think that's happening...
Planning:
- ST Coils or KW's
- 17x8.5 ET15 (would the offsets be too low?)
- Badgeless grille & notch filler (where can I buy this?)

[stan2k]

Fitment/Stance Gurus!! I need your help!! New to modding, trying to figure this out as I'm going along, My Local shop has a set of 18x8.5 et35. I know most of you go et45, should I stay away? or is this ok? Am I on the right path to assume I might be rubbing and need to roll my fenders with this offset?
