The above left is gonna be the spare wheel (original 6J)

There gonna have a two blue thin lines around em the same colour as the jetta.....what ya reckon ??


got some gti arches and stripe to go on yet, then make her shine..

Look real good quality m8, who did them widewheels ? Look forward to seeing them fitted, do you reckon you'll need to roll arches to make them fit m8 ?

cheers Paul

[moosecaddy]

yes widewheels mate they will need rolling, plus a bit of stretch for a nice healthy drop.

I sized them up to fit either the jetta or the caddy, when its done

[lembot]

Are they 15's? they'll look sweet when theyre on.

14's mate there the best for asthetics and practicality IMO

Carry an air compressor with you! OR run silicon sealer over the welds on the inside of the rim

[moosecaddy]

In the pic above you can actually see the black sealer that widewheels put on the welds, they ain't been shy with it either

[MadDub]

would there be pin holes then???

I have already bought a set of banded steels made by widewheels ,and came with tyres as bought second hand, and must say they were spot on for quality, but they were 15's so sold them as feel they were too big for caddy. 14's will be far better, hurry up and fit them to yer caddy, want to see how they fit

Got any pics of the welds.

I have a set made by them and they dont hold air for sh1t! And its obviously a problem for them as they wouldnt be covering the welds in silicon.

I guess you were lucky (unless there was sealer under the tyres)

To be fair, the welds look spot on, although I prefer better penetration this may be why they are pourous!

[moosecaddy]

regarding the air the front pair are holding tight, not got the rear tyres on yet still waiting for delivery, i'm sure they'll be fine.........I hope
