don't you guys think this is a bit pointless...throwing comments at each other??
I thought this was about rims?
personally I don't think that putting rims any larger than 16in on a GTI-R would be good for handling/ride comfort, but thats not what Todd asked, he just wanted to know if 18's could be fitted....he didn't ask if they looked good or made any difference to handling.
Sure I might not agree with his choice, but who cares?? its not my car, its his. He can do whatever the hell he likes.
I would have thought that it would have been more productive to ask what the rims looked like that he was so determined to have, then maybe someone could suggest a) where he might find some that were a different size or b) another brand that looked similar or the same.
:idea:

I run on 16's because I can nearly keep the same rolling radius
as the standard wheels so please get your facts right you maxplonker :x :evil: .

And please do go away back to your saxa/nova boys because we don't

Its a rally car, leave it as one. Why smooth off and show and shine. You cant make this car look good so why bother trying. I dont need to impress people with the size of my wheels. I intend to be going to fast for them to be noticed!

I'd love to see a pic too. Just to see what the car looks like on 19's (seen pics of it on 18's already).

Think I would like to see a pic of an R on 19's to..!! bet it looks nuts..!! :D

V... I dont quite get what your trying to say here... :? Are you saying that we should all conform to your ideal of what makes the perfect R..?? Most of us already do just by owning a black R..!!! Whats wrong with a bit of individuality.?? Whats wrong with trying to stand out a little from the norm..?? Who put you in charge anyway..?? I wouldnt wanna be like you..!!!! :? :? :? :? :shock: :shock: :p :p :shock: :?
Its all well and good building an R with over 350 horses just so your pride doesnt get hurt when racing scoobies..!!! But why not have one that looks as good as it goes..?? Well Not good but atleast slightly more upto date and not stuck in the 90's..!!!!

Suggest you get out more and not hang about on this forum all the time.. Atleast you would see what the real world is like :p

you'll have a lot of problems with 19's, ive got 7.5J 17's on mine and i had to replace the rear shocks with uprated gas ones, put 5mm spacers on the rear and buy myself some uprated sport springs......even then it still rubs slightly when i have company in the back.....whilst going round corners a lil too fast...ahem! :wink: although i would like to see an R with 19's on!
