Constructive Criticism:

French yellow headlights only possibly look good as Rallye headlights(A2's), and e-codes on occaision. A full set of sebrings are nothing to scoff at, not only are they (if memory serves) the lightest factory wheels, second only to the 14"s of the 87 GLi but they also allow clearance of the 280mm rotors and calipers found on the corrado. Finding center caps can be a pain, but in all likelihood you should be much happier with them. As a general rule of thumb you should look for wheels with < 1lb/in. Lowering unsprung weight pays dividends ;)

Who's hating? I just asked why you decided to go with yellow lights.

Madness
09-23-2008, 09:13 AM
im gonna agree with bisquitman, he wasnt hating, so nobody get your panties in a bunch..simple question...

but anyways..
looks good..
i wouldnt have done yellow headlights unless you had something else to tie it in. but looks good none the less..

thankyou sir for the shit. and i do like the sebrings and i might just keep them and getsome wheels spacers? would that look good?

mrnicejetta
09-23-2008, 03:35 PM
Not a problem. I wouldn't mess around with spacers, I've never heard anything good happen with them. Would suck to lose a wheel on the highway so the other 3 fill the arches a lil more. :-o

G-Magoo
09-23-2008, 03:52 PM
I still have all of my wheels on my car, I run spacers.

With few exceptions the more you add to something, the more can be broken.

09-23-2008, 04:19 PM
Proper length wheel studs and spacers would be fine.

However, don't try to use some universal e-bay wheel spacers and stock wheels studs. That would be asking for trouble.

My friend had a wheel fall off like that. Used the cheap universal spacers with his bbs rm on a mk3 jetta. Front wheel came off and rolled past him while driving down the road.

09-23-2008, 04:38 PM
And all of that can be solved with bigger lips.
