Need pics of your 17"s on your VR6!!!

[ScienceVR6]

Hey guys,
I'm in the market for some 17" rims and want to know what you guys are running on your VR6's. From the tyre places I've been to there doesn't seem to be a lot available in the correct offset. So, post up those super sexy 17" rim pics and give me some ideas I'm goin crazy here!!

Don't you already have 17"wheels? your sig say's so.

I've got a LOT more in 15"/16" and I guess that reflects what I think would be the ideal size wheel for a Mk3! Anyway, good luck with your search!

I'm with Raymond on this I would prefer 16s as if you went 17's your rolling diameter would change so to speak if you went 16's they won't..... Bigger rim smaller side wall evens out!

Anyway this is what 16's look like on my old suspension

It's not a VR... But here are the 17's on my MK III...

WOW!!!! thanks Ray, hugely helpful as usual Some nice rims there, seems to be a lot of Porsche rims in use?

wow.. those are extemely explicit pics ray.. i could have gotten fired from work looking at them.

i really like the vento look; grill and lights. or even a corrado?

wheels aren't really my thing. why don't you spend some money on other parts pullstarter? any other reason besides looks? or the old oem is boring and doesn't pull you hard enough

Haha sorry mate, should put in a NSFW tag next time

Yeah, a lot of OEM VW, Audi, Benz, Porsche and BMW wheels are chosen. They make look ordinary on their respective vehicles but can look special on others.



Believe it or not, those are Mk4 Golf wheels (17" Longbeach). We got the 15" version (or was it 16"?) instead. Cheap alternative and also works well!

I think wheels really do set the car off, but that said, you don't have to break the piggy bank to do that.

I do like the rims that are on the car already but unfortunately the dodgy bas***d who I bought the car from used spacers to mount them and they're the wrong offset So rather than have a wheel snap off on me I'm forced to get some new ones I'm too scared to chuck the thing into corners now and with the suspension set up it has that's a cryin' shame
