That is one slammed VW. How is the ride quality? Do you bounce around on every bump or are the springs somewhat forgiving?
Other then that, great pictures. Not digging the rims on either of the cars but that's just my opinion :-D

They look like Hotwheels cars... no joke.

I like them though, but I can see how a lot of people wont. Awesome pictures!

Edit: And wow, I just realized you guys are in Florida... you ever go to the Towershoppes in Davie on friday nights? There's always a HUGE gathering of VW guys there, but I have never seen those two cars, I would have remembered them.

got them for a steal, 1500 dollar wheels for 350. it was more of an investment haha. i almost sold them for 2000 on a vw forum a little while back.

thanks :) . the ride quality is actually pretty damn good considering the height the car is at. the only real problem is hitting the passenger side axle against the frame on large bumps. which has now turned in to me riding on the axle almost constantly because i dropped the front more. time to get notched :idea:

we are actually in orlando, but the red car is from south florida. he might have been before but it would have been way before he got the wheels on. we all traveled down for the big SFLGTG back in feb.

stretch tires FTL!

FAIL...go back to your purple rims...they looked better

yeah i know you guys don't like stretched tires, but it honestly does serve a purpose in this case. any wider tires and i'd have to raise the car up.

thanks for all the comments so far :beer:

so the only purpose this has is to get the "tire" in the wheel well? :shrug: Car looks great, just don't really understand why you would run like that.

eh yeah, pretty much haha. and yeah, i know its a matter of taste and preference on the whole stretch thing. :beer:
