mc99cl

So I just recently got a 99 cl and I wanna lower it and I was thinking I really like widened steelies. So being a normal vw guy I wanted to go with a wider wheel and I thought diamond racing would look unique. I know I'll need some kind of camber kit, but my question is your opinion I have never seen a cl on them and I was thinking 16x8 in front and maybe 16x9 or 10 in the rear fender work won't be a problem I know a body guy. If anyone has pictures of their car or knows a car on widened steelies post a pic! Thanks

no one's really gone 16's and that wide. I think one guy had some xxr's that were like 16x9 and they werent too bad. its just really hard to make 16's look good because you literally need to ride like on the ground. im on 17x9.75+25 all around. and i still have to ride close to the earth to make it look right.

yea i get what your saying i just got the car and the tranny just went, it slips super hard and then it just turns off and wont turn on for 5 mins and turns back on

hey spencer did you need to roll fenders and/or run spacers for that wheel setup? im thinking about getting your same wheels.

had to do some serious fender rolling. i had them flare them out as much as possible. they changed the whole angle of the fender by rollin it so hard

Are 17' s the best size to with on cl's? Im lookin to get a set of wheels in a couple of months and 16s seem to be to small.
