You can tuck tyre easy without needing a skit plate on a mk5 , you just need the right sizw wheels for the car !

17s are way to small
18s are perfect
19s can be done if you know how to stance :)

My old mk5 on 19s

like what you have done so far hows the induction kit ? in my opinion might need to go abit lower for the wheels maybe to work.

Nice car!

What bulbs are you running for the fulls? Brand? Opinion? Life span?
And the fogs, are they film?

I fancy doing mine.

Cheers, yh I agree it does need to go lower and it will soon. Yh I like the induction kit a lot, does make a fair amount of induction noise and you can here it dump, but I like the sounds so all good for me :)

The bulbs in the high beam are just some yellow bulbs I got from euro car parts, I've had them in a few weeks now and they seem good. The full beam is now yellow tho but I don't really mind jus looks cool when you catch it just right, the full beam looks all yellow  :happy2:

Yar - different, wheels look smart on the car.

I'm not into slammed cars, although I agree that a slightly bigger drop on the rear would definitely help. If you can afford to go lower at the front too (if the component/practicality allows) then that would be a bonus and really push to 'pull' the wheels and stance off.

Still think this is the first time I've seen those wheels on a MK5 around the forums and meets, pretty cool.

Come up with a bit of a problem, wheels are too small and I can't get low enough :( so I've found some landrover monodials for sale and am considering them, now would anyone be interested in these wheels? And also have four brand new 194/45r17 aswell
