VRRob 0 Posted December 15, 2010 Report Share Posted December 15, 2010 Has anyone got any pics of mk3 golfs on 18" wheels? Found some wheels i like but i dont know if 18's will be too big? *-) Link to post Share on other sites
VR6Nat 9 Posted December 15, 2010 Report Share Posted December 15, 2010 They really are too big imo.the ideal size is 16s, 17s are ok but 18s just look odd and also hamper the performance and handling of the car... there are plenty of wheels out there, just keep searching. :) Link to post Share on other sites
Dave_ciw 507 Posted December 15, 2010 Report Share Posted December 15, 2010 Couldn't agree more, I think 18's throw your speedo out I am not 100% on that. Link to post Share on other sites
Apollo 0 Posted December 15, 2010 Report Share Posted December 15, 2010 Don;t do it......they will look stupid and handle like 2CV on a bad day. I have 17's on mine and that's the limit I would honestly say. Link to post Share on other sites

Timah89 1 Posted December 15, 2010 Report Share Posted December 15, 2010 i had 17's on my mk3 gti and didnt notice a big difference when i had them on, i tehn got the VR and ran the BBS 15's for a while and whilst they were getting refirbed i put the 17's on for a couple of days, to me they destroyed the car, the handling felt sluggish and unresponsive. put the 15's back on and it just felt awesome. no harm in just getting 15's or 16'6 (not tried one with 16's on) and spend the etra money on some decent coilovers!! my opinion anyway Link to post Share on other sites
VRRob 0 Posted December 15, 2010 Author Report Share Posted December 15, 2010 Yea I was thinking 15's I'm a small wheel person having owned numerous polos but they just look soo small. I have some 17" bbs splittys atm. Just bored of them want some 16' s really just seen some nice 18's and was wondering. Link to post Share on other sites
