I have some big fat spacers Im going to throw on it this weekend so it will at least fill out the fenders. Going to test fit my Fliks to see how that looks as well.

I am about 99% sure I am going to do this. Going to paint match the flares and probably go with Rotiform Nue 18x9.5 with 265/35 tires. The Nues can be ordered with custom offsets from 0-45. If I recall correctly the offset on that MK6 with 18x9.5 wheels was 15. Most affordable cast wheel I like for this and the added bonus of customized offsets for the best fit.

The wheels look like these, wish my car looked like that.

Links were updated.
I hate trying to crosslink pictures from G+, I can never get it right.
I really dig the Nue wheels, I definitely want to go concave for my next set.
My only concern is weight. I found a set of 1552 wheels I like but they weigh 31lbs.

Im going to test fit my Fliks sometime this week. I was going to mess around with spacers and wheels this weekend but I ended up working on some other stuff and built a better way to jack up my car than just using a 2x4 to get onto ramps.
Bought a 10foot 2x12, chopped it in half, then built a backstop so I can put my ramps on top of it. BOOM mega ramp and no longer worrying about lining up ramps and 2x4s and having things move around.

I have a set of 8.5x17 SSR Competition's for sale, covered with decent Continental DWS tyres..
The are 5x114.3 originally(m12 holes), but the holes are bored out to accept the M14 bolts, and I'm running wobble bolts(without a problem for 1000's km's on different cars).


1 problem: wheels are located in the Netherlands(Europe) and shipping would cost too much I reckon..
