Hi all,

Don't know what size wheels to get for the VR6? 17" or 16"? I'm thinking of getting a set of nice BBS wheels...

I think 16s are the sweet spot for a mk3 so long as they're wide with decent offsets you can't go wrong. Save the 17s and 18s for the fullysik brigade in their lancers and civics lol

How low do you wanna go? I've got 17s on my VR now and it juuuuuust works, but only because I literally cannot squeeze a finger inbetween tyres and guards.

Old 16s:

New (more fitmenty) 17s:

Yeah, I agree that 16's are the sweet spot. Devs 16" Montreal II's look sweet.

If it were me though, I'd do the same and go for 17's with stretched rubber.

MK3's are all about stance ;)

Devs 16" Montreal II's look sweet.

I suppose it begs the question, "just how gangster are you?" ;)

Grab Devs 16inch.. They are a classic BBS look, nice mesh wheel.

Thanks everyone... like everyone's comments, I think I'll go with the 16"

I don't think you will be able to turn the wheels normally with the 17' and the ride will be imposible. But the car will look amazing >D
I would go with the 16' like someone above said.
