Phil 0 Posted March 19, 2005 Report Share Posted March 19, 2005 18's will look a bit gay on a Mk3. Not hink it would be "overwheeled"? Selll them for a profit and get some 17"'s. Link to post Share on other sites
Ferrari VR6 0 Posted March 23, 2005 Report Share Posted March 23, 2005 I asked a question about fitting 18" R32 wheels to a MK3 Golf recently, there's some useful info if you are still considering fitting 18'shttp://www.vr6oc.com/forum_viewtopic.php?21.49935 Link to post Share on other sites

Devilfish 0 Posted March 23, 2005 Report Share Posted March 23, 2005 17" wheels fit fine on my slammed VR, just go for 17/35/205 tyres think my wheels are 7.5 inches wide. Link to post Share on other sites

Chris H 0 Posted April 3, 2005 Report Share Posted April 3, 2005 in my opinion how big a wheel looks has far more to do with the design of it rather than the actual size it is. There's only an inch difference in them, 2.5 cms, not much. I'm not sure on the whole overwheeled thing tbh.[ Edited Sun Apr 03 2005, 08:20AM ] Link to post Share on other sites
