She is looking shweet.......

looks mint, guess you gave the gold/yellow a miss then.
is that like a white with hint of blue, like the paint that some of those lupo's get done in?

yeah i decided against the gold colour. it IS blue, but in the light it does seem grey/white and pictures just havent shown the colour right on it yet lol

It's all about blue.Your jetta looks great but you sure don't come to london (Road Hump Central).I have had to put 17s on my car for my brakes and also gives my that little ground clearance.

lol im looking into getting some new wheels next. been told mate may have some g60 steels i could have for £30! or some 15" bbs rims on a golf a friend has in his scrapyard so gonna look at them too. any ideas if i would need any arch work to run 15s?

nope 15's bbs ra's are standard wheels on some mk2's as were RM's so no work needed, mind you probably will depend how low you go

The bbs's will set your jetta of nicely and compliment your bodywork

thanks thats what i was thinking black centres and polished lip i recon. any ideas what profile tyres id need to run the car at pretty low drop?

195/45/15 should do the job ,you still want your comfort 45 should do and it will still corner like a go-kart...

sweet thanks

195/45x15 s are a bit hard to get a hold of also they are a little more expensive would go for 195/50x15 easier to get and a bit cheaper thats what i run and i have no problems

Sorry mate i forgot i got my tyres from mate who used to get tyres at cost.And Disco is perfectly right 195/50/15 are tyres can be picked up at all tyre shops.[/img]

ok thats cool theres a few places i can get part worns and places where they can order in tyres at cost price for me too

Try Camskill tyres. Excellent service and price.

Steve if you are like me money is hard to come by but because i sometimes drive my car hard and on the continant i only get new tyres at least then i know the life of them. Just a slight health risk buying second hands which could have had a hard life but still have plenty of tread....

my car is a 1.3 its pretty hard to give it a hard life most of the time anyways

Remember one thing we all start some where. I was given a volvo 340DL Purple. Make the most of what you've got just like what you are doing.

yeah i love what i got might as well do some engine mods/change though at some point to complete the car

i was running my jetta 120mm with 195 45 15's on. all you need to do really is roll the arches and job done! but make sure you buy tyres that have rounded sidewalls an not the square shoulderd type. sounds stupid i know but its true.

rounded side walls? you mean stretched look?

no there still 195 45 15's jus with a different style sidewall. the ones ive got are GT Radials and didnt scrub at all. Mytyres stock them and Kwik Fit have them in stock aswell

ahhh right i see! didnt realise they do different side walls on tyres until you mentioned them tbh lol

tbh i dont think many people do. My mate has the same problem on his 306 due to being ridiculously low on the back. I rolled my arches just to make sure they didnt catch aswell!!!

i havent got the wheels now, i got offered some ford fiesta rs turbo recaros so couldnt tuirn them down
