Modernlines are, and I thought they did a 1-pc TH-line also, but i can't find them anywhere. That sucks.

I prefer the look of the 2-pc to the 3-pc though.

actually the 1piece modern lines do look fantastic on black mk5s......

I think 16x9 Borbet B's are going on my car next, just waitin to sort the arches....

16X9 are way too big for the 6N2 IMO

haha 16x9....can you show me when they are on please

big_k · Post by **big_k** » Wed Sep 03, 2008 2:45 am

Tom, whats so funny? Im hoping to run them... if not then some artec edition l's, who knows i might settle with some rs' similar to what u had Tom! They shouldnt poke much more than your rs' did....

Tim 16x9 are way too big when running uber stretch and standard arches, flare them PROPERLY (not arch enemy style) and you've got a different story all together... but so far i haven't seen 16x9s work on a 6n2 so will decide once the arches are done...

16x9 borbet b's are my plan at the mo but ill probs change my mind in the next few months anyway....

its just a huge wheel for a polo.....mine were 15x8.5 and that was probably too big imo

but i guess with some arch butchering and the right ET it could work

big_k · Post by **big_k** » Thu Sep 04, 2008 2:37 am

They wont poke more than your rs', the bbs have a pretty low et... the borbet's have an et of 15 i think.... plus im hoping to get the arches beaten out around 15mm.... This might all be put on hold till 09 though because im getting desperate for some smoothage and the arch work is going to rape my wallet... lol

Whens the 1.8t being completed?

moynas had 15x8 polished modernlines on his red 5 door gti, looked great.

They'd look like this:

Pretty sure that's 16X9 on the rear, damn sure looks like it. I think it looks stupid to be honest, doesn't flow with the body of the car at all.
