ok, so we had too much time on our hands this day i suppose. anyway, my friend wanted to rotate the tires on his jetta GLI, so i did that for him. i thought i'd see what the 18 in BBS rims looked like on my car, so i tried to place them so in the pix they looked on the car somewhat. just for and idea, not that i'd want rims that big. also took some next to my jetta. looks rediculous.

on the jetta, no. for the accord though, they look pretty good. something about the look of those rims set against the backdrop of your paint is nice. i agree the size is too much, but in maybe some 16's it would look good.

Yeah I'm not a fan either. Those rims you have on the 3g would look decent on the Jetta though, I think the style just suits older VWs way better than it suits a Honda. Too bad you can't just swap them.

The 18's are nice looking rims, but yes they look rediculous on the older cars. I like their style though, bet they look real hot on the newer Jetta.

i'd probley never go 18's on either car. for both i'd probley do some 16's. these below are what i'm planning on getting for the 3gee here soon. they have an old school look to them that i think would go nice with the car. for the jetta, i'll probley get something cool too. probley something german.
