Lower might scrape
I want 19s...
Hey guys
Thought I would post a pic of my car with the minimal mods I've done so far. BTW the interior is beige leather in perfect condition - looks good with the black paint I reckon
The mods:
- 19 x 8.5 inch ASA JH8 wheels - with Yokohama S.Drive 235/35/19
- KW V2 coilovers (custom rear setup)
- Pioneer 7 inch touch screen DVD unit with full ipod video integration
- DieselGeek skid plate
- Kamei grill
- K&N air filter.
I only just put the 19s on the other day after they were shipped in from the US. They look decent but I'm still undecided whether I will keep them or put Oettinger RE 17s back on...
Fairly happy with the way the car has turned out so far. Needs more lowering though I think. Opinions??
P.S sorry for the crappy pic lol

Those wheels look great! You think you need more lowering???? That is pretty damn low already. Surely any lower would have a seriously negative effect on handling.
BTW, do you mind me asking what the wheels cost you landed?
sukebe, I got the wheels through Tire Rack - thanks for the heads up about them!
Landed cost was only ~$1800 plus customs/import taxes
Try getting 19s locally from somewhere like Tempe or Ozzy for your MKIV. Firstly good luck finding wheels in 5x100 that actually look good, and enjoy the crap tyres that come with them lol
As for the lowering bit, it handles decently even at this height. Ultimately I would like to run some massive camber in the rear and drop it another 20mm. We'll see how we go![]()
Wheels are HOT HOT HOT!
Whole car looks great, very well modded and sits bloody damn well![]()
