New Shoes on the DUB

[rollininstyle2004]

I got tired of the mesh style, so I decided to go with a more euro look. Dished out monoblocks. They are Mandrus Emil 19x8.5F 19x9.5R with a 225-35-19F and a 245-35-19R. Little bit of stretch and poke, nothing crazy just a clean euro style:

I'm going to have to say that those wheels look even better than the previous. It's giving the car that big body, luxury car look. Good job. Later, QD.

[The Ren]

I have to agree with QD

[cactusEG]

nice i bet they cost an arm and a leg

[YokotaS13]

they look like autocoture wheels lol

clean man, clean

[william_jeff]

um yea...i'm going to have to say that that is one pimp tight vdub, nice selection

[The BUCKY]

[EM1toEVO]

Looks pimp!

it went good man..almost got into a fight with some crumbsnatcher that tried to start shit, but other than that, it was nice..peaceful.

cosign!

[F1ian(si)]

thats baller status right there

[VooDooXII]

Very Audi...though I personally don't like how those ones look.

However, it does go with the authoritative look of your car...so if you like them, then :goodjob: !

Ahhh...if only I could fit those TSWs to mine!

[carbongs]

these wheels def look way better in person. it gives it a EURO/VIP look and feel since it does have a stretched tire set up with some neg camber in the rear. when he is on the streets rollin it looks wicked!

[Dracc]

what did you do with the mesh wheels? looks really good though

[Chuckster]

Damn, those look better then the mesh. Looks great, but its missing something now. With the mesh wheels, your car looked complete. Now with these wheels it kinda looks like you need more.

[sleepys4]

Its funny, if i saw them on a website or something i wouldn't have looked twice. Them on the car is a whole different story. NICE WHEELS!

That is pretty much what I was going for, so I guess mission accomplished :goodjob:

Lol...nice

[The BUCKY]

let me know when your ready for somemore work bro.

[Julio]

bad ass.. looks better then the other wheels.

[quickdodge®]

That is pretty much what I was going for,

My approval or the description, lolol. Later, QD.

[sprix!]

Not bad- looks very distinctive. Good aftertaste.

[Kyle]

:no: The kylamani's weren't the best wheels ever but I dont think these are an upgrade. It just reminds me of the A4 in Elite, and I dont like those wheels much either. Other than that I really like everything you have done to your car.

[VooDooXII]

I know I'll like seeing them in motion...one big spinning silver slab.

Whoa, say that five times fast...hah.

2000th post :bannana:

[Humphrizzle]

best wheels ever.

I LOVE IT!!!

[rollininstyle2004]

let me know when your ready for somemore work bro.
Will do...we can talk about it tomorrow at Malibu. I was waiting to hear back from someone for a piece for my engine bay before I made final plans on what I wanted you to do, that fell through though, so I think I have everything figured out though.

[rollininstyle2004]

My approval or the description, lolol. Later, QD.
The description...not that your approval isnt worth it though :yes:

[rollininstyle2004]

Its a hate it or love it style, I knew that everyone would have one of those responses. I like them, and truthfully the majority of the people that have seen them LOVE them, much more positives then I had imagined. I built the car for me, and I like them, its something different then what I had before, so ill rock them for a while.

[GGPIS3]

i think the overall picture looks good, however i do have an honest question... why did you put staggered wheels/tires on a fwd? i never understood this... is there any gain in handling? or is it purely just to make your car look like a rwd?

Honestly its solely for looks, no handling gain (no real downside afaik other then the rear wheels being a little heavier). Its not that fast of a car to begin with so its more show than go anyway. No worries though that was a legit question.

[GSRteg®]

I like them bro looks bad. :yes:

:lmao: sorry Dan, I saw the screen name and I had to use it.

[Humphrizzle]

that guy asked the same question twice...

[VooDooXII]

You know...with a Passat, you could fool someone into thinking it was an RWD. Passats have a longitudinally mounted FWD layout...which is uncommon with most modern cars. Longitudinal engine + staggered setup...hah, it almost adds up.

:lmfao:I don't know why this is so funny to me. Mabe because people think it's really you. I should make more of those.

No gain in handling. Not to make it look rwd, but to make it look better. You put it on for the same reason you put a body kit, 2-tone paint, ect, ect. on a car. To make it look better, stand out more. Show car.

oh you answered his question already.

[AnthonyF]

too bad it got curbed. It's all fixable though. :)

[Humphrizzle]

he asked the same question 3 times!

[rollininstyle2004]

Yea...that was bad...

New wheels should be here next Mon or Tuesday...oh well, shit happens. Not how I wanted to spend my money, but it looks BAAAAAAAAAAD right now :(

[Psycho]

I've been wondering the same thing.

[Humphrizzle]

same question 4 times.. lets see how long this goes on for.

[GGPIS3]

you guys aren't very perceptive lol... take a look at the number of posts i have and the one the sn that wants to be me has.. also look at the rep bars.

do you really think a 31 year old is going to act like a 12 year old? well, sometimes, but not in this type of wack humor. you can thank psycho for this. or you can just neg rep him for wasting bandwith.

[VooDooXII]

I'm still lost on how he did that.

[GGPIS3]

i wont reveal his secrets as lame as they are.. i dont want others going around doing the same wack shit...

[IndianStig]

Need chrome trim on door handle's and grille.


Then the car will be sexy again.

I figured it'd be kept under wraps.

[benwaballs]

nice lookin

Got rid of all the chrome trim around the bumpers (the OEM US Spec strips had chrome) and I dont like chrome door handles. Im happy with it how it is as far as the amount of chrome goes :)

I like it all black...looks very sharp.

[Chuckster]

yea no more chrome

[Mr2raceworks]

Nice sewer caps

[BobbyFresco]

Those wheels are true Euro style and the OEM+ look you have going is clean and simple...Car looks great.

[esiatlanta]

looks gooddddd

[rollininstyle2004]

:goodjob: Thanks

[VooDooXII]

The more I see them, the more I like them.

Wow man...I REALLY like what you've done with your car. I know my jaw would drop if I saw it in person.

That style is sort of what I had in mind for my car...though I don't want to be a biter!

Haha, keep it up man...Rollin' in Style for sure. :goodjob:

[SicStang03]

i would have gone with the black hp evo wheels.

[Humphrizzle]

thats a horrible suggestion..

HP wheels are ugly, HP EVO wheels are the ugliest wheels.

these were perfect for the car.

[rollininstyle2004]

i would have gone with the black hp evo wheels.
I would have too if I wanted something cheap and played out...I have yet to see these wheels on any other Passat, or any other Audi for that matter. I wanted to do something different, and I think these work perfectly for what I was going for.

[AnthonyF]

well...if your going to go slow...might as well do it in style. :)


saw them at Malibu and they looked great! they give that high class benz style.....or even that Audi fron VW rear high class style! :)

[VooDooXII]

True...I don't think I've ever seen these wheels before.

Im debating plans for the motor. On one hand I dont know if I want to go BT seeing as the car is a FWD and that just seems kinda worthless. The other part of me just wants to throw at GT2871R on there and have some fun with it...

[The Joker]

car looks real clean. nice ride.

[carbongs]

GT2871R all the way bro!

[lsxtreme]

wat kind of car ish dat..?

[rollininstyle2004]

VW Passat

[veritekracer]

I'm late on this, but you're definitely steppin it up Jordan!!! Love the classy look!!! First time I saw your car, I thought it was an Audi from afar. Testament to your modding tastes. Keep up the great work.
