Anyone have pics of a Jetta with either of these two wheels? I'm trying to make a decision.
If you don't have pics, please give me your opinions.
Thanks.

I had S3 wheels on my Galactic Blue Jetta. I like the look ... aggressive, but not overly. My car has no visual mods, so it blended well. Would have looked even better with a 1.5" drop.
TT polished? Depends on the color. I like the polished look on darker cars. Personal preference.
S3 wheels are about 25lbs without the rubber. I think they are close to 50lbs, tire and wheel. TT polished are much lighter. I did notice a difference in gas mileage, and a slight difference in acceleration (butt dyno) b/t my 15" stockers and the S3 wheels.

My car is a black Jetta GLX, no exterior mods.

Then I think either would look good. If the search is back, look for DBJs car ... he had polished TT wheels on his black Jetta.
I think the TT wheels are a little flashier, so if you are going for a more understated/low key/sleeper look, maybe the S3 wheels would be more your style.

Um, pretty sure those are the 6 spoke TT wheels. They don't have the indentation at the joint of the spoke and rim, and the center cap is wrong in the pic.
