Get used to it.

MKII VW's are more sunken on the rears, so you need at least 10mm spacers just to even them out. If I could I would have ran the 8's all around, but then I would mexi-poke on the fronts. I still want to tuck rubber on the front. (Same size rubber is going on all 4). It's a look thing anyways, I'm keeping the 92's for a lightweight functional set of rollers.

Why does that seem funny? You can see tons of staggered FWD's all over the net. Well at least VW's anyways, as long as I can remember people have been running staggered on VW's. Didn't even seem weird to me.

My buddy Matt is running a 7.5"/9" stagger on his MK3 here in the city. And somebody else had those Keskin's KT1's in a stagger as well on a Golf.

so your going to put wider wheels in the rear?......................

yes. 7's front, 8's rear. 195/45's all around.

It's just a Honda thing to be all creepy and go "nuh-uh you can't run staggered wheels on a FWD car"

All these cars, all staggered wheels. A million more out there.










Here's a prime example of a matched set with no spacer in the back. Rears are more sunken on VW's.

i think the title of the thread is stance, not function ability. Who cares how wide the wheels are on the back of fwd. Forexample a blue bolt in rollcage in a s2000. was that done for function or looks

Actually thinking about it more, Cody has staggered Porsche Wheels on his GTI and Cam has staggered wheels on the Coupe de Golf too. Plus I found a Pic of that local car on staggered KT1's. So staggered wheels go with VW like Honda goes with rice (just kidding...no but seriously... )

Also for function I already said I'm keeping the Enkei 92's around (as per what 1eightySX said, I can switch it up whenever I want) this set up is just about looks.

lol wut?

What are you talking about Bogan, same old Jetta 3. Red one is fucking sick on those Borbets. Plus Turbo VR! (that's for show, everybody knows you'll just spin the tires) Actually I think the question of "Staggered wheels on a FWD? Should be simplified like this "Ewww FWD? WTF is wrong with you!?"

my guess is either front end conversion or the fact that its a 2 door

They never made a 2 door Jetta MKIII. People make them using a Golf donor car and a lot of body work.

I'd like to see what they do for the inside personally.
