19″ Shoes for Rabbit Feet
Written by Dion on March 23, 2009 – 1:30 pm -
Tyler has been stopping by and getting quite a few upgrades for his VW Mk5 Rabbit 2.5L lately. It first started with a Carbonio Cold Air Intake , then an APR ECU Upgrade once APR sale pricing came into effect. His latest upgrade is the Hartmann HRS4-252 HB wheels in 19×8.5 et47…



A drastic change from stock 15s, the 19s did bring the Rabbit a bit higher up off the ground but Tyler intends to remedy this with H&R Race Springs in the very near future.

Let’s talk about VS-XX… (again)
Written by Dion on November 7, 2008 – 1:38 pm -Despite the rain and early arrival of darkness these days, we were still able to get Mario’s Work VS-XX wheels on for him. The anticipation of seeing the final outcome was overwhelming so we even decided to go out for an informal ‘shoot’ on our way home…
At 19×8.5″ all around, these Work VS-XX wheels fill the fenders of this Mk5 GLI perfectly and Mario didn’t have to do a single thing to change his original stance since careful measuring had ensured proper fitment. A final offset of 45mm was selected to maximize the lip on a high-offset requiring Mk5 yet push the face of the wheels out as close to the fender as possible without any tire-to-fender contact issues.
Mario took some of his own pictures during the shoot, most of which can be found in his testimonial (and fantastic write-up!!) but I like his photography style and wanted to share his pictures here with you as well.
Mario, congratulations on the purchase of your dream wheel! We thank you for the opportunity and we look forward to doing more business with you in the future. Your Mk5 Jetta GLI is by far one of the hottest in the Pacific Northwest!!
