New Rims for Golfjwr
I searched all over for what I thought would be the perfect rims for my TL-S. I was close when I ordered some MB Battles, only to find out not once but twice that they wouldn't clear the Brembos(even with 5mm H&R spacers). I told myslef I was not going to go through that fitment BS again, so I sucked it up and ordered some wheels that I knew would fit with no problems. I present to you my brand new matte gary Work Emotion XT-7, 18"x8.5", wrapped in some Z rated Gerneral Exclaim UHP 245x40. Red Work valve stems and red Rays extended lugs finish off just the look I was going for. Center caps should be here in few weeks.
Onto the pics:thumbsup: http://i616.photobucket.com/albums/t...crowave019.jpg http://i616.photobucket.com/albums/t...crowave020.jpg http://i616.photobucket.com/albums/t...crowave023.jpg http://i616.photobucket.com/albums/t...crowave024.jpg http://i616.photobucket.com/albums/t...crowave025.jpg http://i616.photobucket.com/albums/t...crowave026.jpg http://i616.photobucket.com/albums/t...crowave028.jpg http://i616.photobucket.com/albums/t...crowave029.jpg http://i616.photobucket.com/albums/t...crowave027.jpg Here are a few pics from Eric's big boy camera http://i616.photobucket.com/albums/t...fjwr/work2.jpg http://i616.photobucket.com/albums/t...fjwr/work3.jpg http://i616.photobucket.com/albums/t...wr/work1-1.jpg One random shot of my engine bay after a fresh wax job:toocool: http://i616.photobucket.com/albums/t...fjwr/work4.jpg |
2 questions
1) what'd you do with the type s rims 2) is the engine bay color matched? we have the same color, that's why i'm interested. the wheels look really sick. they match the car well. nice choice man |
Those wheels are definitely an improvement over stock! :thumbsup:
|
Glad to see you got these over the battles. They look great and best of all they are Works and not MBs lol

they look great....whats the offset on those????
|
I saw these in person this past Saturday and they are gorgeous! Well along with the rest of the car too:thumbsup:
Jesse you did a great job picking these out. Once you get those center caps and a drop, they will stand out even more. Both my girlfriend and I approve the wheels:tomato: |
nice, i like those, matches dat CBP perfect
|
Nice wheels, they go great with your car color. Good choice.
|
Great wheels, drop it! :)

You will have to wait until you are eligible to go to the Black Market Forum and then wait for a thread to be posted for whatever you want to buy. |
Not bad not bad. I think I would like the car more though if you lost the red accents just doesnt seem right on a $30K+ sport/luxury sedan, but hey thats just me.
I will say your engine bay looks BEAUTIFUL!! I really like that!! Nice Type S man. |

looking real good jesse! i would do coilovers instead of springs, might as well just spend the extra money now....while you still can :tomato:
but if you choose springs, i haven't had any problems with mine :thumbsup: |
very nice set of wheels!

Thanks Tyler! I am glad the GF approves as well, more importantly my Wife approves:thumbsup:
I wasn't going to post that pic because I was blasted when I first got them installed. However, I am glad that you did becuase I think they look hot as shit and it really sets my car apart. Thanks Tyler.. And bring your wife to the next meet! You can tell her that she won't be the only female there, I promise:tomato: |
I just don't like the red letter decals in the front.
Your car look hot though. |

Coming along very nicely :toocool:
|
cant go wrong with Works.:thumbsup:
|
that's a really nice car and headlights and rims are awesome but please for god sakes lower it. A little at least.
|
beautiful car. tastefully done.
|
Golf, you've got it now brother. Everything looks great. The red accents look excellent-especially with your Angel Eyes on! Are the center caps red?
|
good choice, those wheels look nice on the S. followed the red theme with the lugs huh, pretty sweet. the offset on em look right on. perfect. the bay is looking spectacular. fresh coat of wax! ha ha! awesome.
whats next on the list? |
Jesse, Santa needs to bring you a new camera for X-mas. Your car looks so much better in person brotha. The modding never stops...Get those H&R sport springs and call it another mod chcked off the never ending mod list.

I have no doubt that this car has not reached its full potential. With your passion for this beast, it will continue to impress us through time. Excellent choice on wheels Jesse. :thumbsup:
|
dang man im really diggen the garage haha with the wheels, but i bet you so many people would want to buy them :thumbsup:
|
nice broo...
|
Nice looking wheels. Dump the red lugs. Even with the the other red accents the red lugs are a :nono: .
|
If I saw those red halos creeping up on me from behind at night, I don't know if I would get excited or scared...:what:
|
that ride is screaming to drop it like it hot!!

You could have gone with a concave setup with
Mb battles and it would have cleared brembos. Works a better choice. Drop it! Lookin sick with the devil eyes |
