Well Its been along time since I've posted in here. Moved onto the Vortex. Just stopping by to reminisce. Loved my J-body. Excellent first car to play around with. Here's what I've got so far. About done with the GTI, waiting for the tranny to blow so I can get a new one and BT. Anyone remember me?!?

oh look wider rims with uselessly stretched tires... on a VW? NO WAY!!!!!!


Sorr, but I think your car is beautiful, just never understood the crap with widening rims, and stretching tires. It looks dumb, it hurts performance(what good is a wider rim without any extra contact to the ground?) and can potentially be dangerous if taken to an extreme... it is one car modding trend I will never understand and will always hate

Rofl on the streched tire comment......


And yea, air ride is pretty common, even for the VW crowd.

Love the car, never been much of a VW fan, but I can't get enough of this one!! Plus, air is a must in my book, makes any car look 10x better!

I wouldn't say I was owned. IT IS a fad with the VW guys, and I do think it is dumb as hell. So I was wrong about his car in particular? woohoo "pwnt" .

ANYWAY, looking at the second pic, and the pic of the tire spinning, it looks like the bead is stretched way away from the tread.

The way the original reply was written, it apeared as you were trying to call him out on it.

No, I was saying how retarded and lame it is when people do that. And also saying it looked like his were stretched. How exactly do you call someone out on having a mod? I don't think you fully understand the term "calling someone out"....

Yup sounds like you were just talking about how you hated that fad. Not calling out his car for that mod at all.
