19s? You trying to kill all your speed? j/k ummm.... BBS might have some? AVR(think that is the name of their company) have some really kick arse wheels that were on a featured M3 in European Car back in the summer.... Get some of those W12 wheels, those are sweet!

Get some 19X8 OZ Superleggeras, that would be sweet! Hey eric, just a question...how come they have these wheels under mkIV VWs but not mkIIIs? I noticed that there were a lot more wheels for the new models than the 90s models, will they work on either mk?

I have Milli EVO5's. Dont get em (only cause too many people incl myself already have em). As for ride and slowing your car down its not nearly as bad as most people say. Ride is negligably worse, hardly unstreetable. I've driven 17" tires that rode worse. The 235/35/19 Pirelli P7000's are QUIETER than the factory Michilens. Throttle response and steering are slower but bolting from a stop is not nearly as bad as people would have you believe. I can still break the tires loose on the 1-2 shift enough to make the traction control intervene agressively and I'm stock. Steering becomes a little on the heavy side during agressive manuevers but well worth the staring and everyday looks you it gets. You can always buy some cheap 15's or 16's with performance rubber if you do more than just G.Here's a photoshop since I haven't taken pics yet:

Most of the MkIV fitments are 7.5-8. MkIII's do much better with 7-7.5 width wheels.
