    19 inches of VMR awesomeness installed! :D

    Specs are 19x8.5 ET45. Tyres are Kuhmo Ecsta KU31.

    That looks pretty cool. A little lower and it would look supreme.. However i know what you're going through. I lifted the Caddy up a bit for the same reason.

    Yeah I got rid of the Polo because it was a nightmare on Melbourne roads, way too stiff. I'm keeping the stocko suspension on this one because I spend most my time in the car and need comfort. 19's dont really optimise this but i was willing to sacrifice a little comfort for these!

    Those look real good... that's the kind of colour I was originally going to get my 19" Talledega's done in (will just have to wait until I scratch them now, kinda like the black now)

    What's the width on those tyres?

    The things i would sacrifice! That looks porn. I'd definitely look into lowering it, but everyone has their own reasons and preferences.

    ah the "I've never modified a car before" look.

    10/10 for effort.

    I hate VMR wheels!

    but only because they don't make 5x100 LOL

    Great look and love the gunmetal as well!

    Tyre specs are 225/35 R19. Little bit of stretch which I wanted and the rim lips sit just outside the tyre edge.....perfect for gutters :p

    Mate I'd love to lower it as it'd look nuts... and hold myself back every day from ordering a lowering kit, but I really just can't. I travel about 200k's every day and need as much comfort as possible.
