    is it possible to make mk3 look good on some 14" ?

    i have a mk3 that needs some love and i set of 14" 2 pieces wheels sitting around.
    i have search the net and found almost nothing on topic and i guess not many people are going with 14"
    is it possible to make mk3 look good on some 14"? i have only had 16"and 17" on mk3 before
    any photos or directions ? to do or not to do ?
    cheers

    10" Lift + mud tyres?

    I think that 16" is the perfect size for the MK3, I find 17" can look good if done right... As for 14", I think they are just too small.

    personal opinion of course, but there you have it.

    pretty much on same page as your are there, just looking for some photos,fittment and tyres info on low mk3 on 14" if any around?
    i have one mk3 at the moment on 16x7.5 and 16x8.5
    the silver one is meant to be a bit different ...

    I would've love to run wide 14's on my Mk3, but I converted to VR6 brakes before I had that epiphany.

    Dont think it works to well, IMO.

    15's min I think, 16's best, and 17's if you've got game!

    Pirelli Pslots look good for 14"s.

    wide wheels, high sidewalls and skinny tyres, and your euro lip must be at the most 20mm off the ground.

    Not a fan of it tbh. I'm running 16's and I think 15's or 16's are the go for the mk3.
