In fact, scrub that, looking at your car a set of ATS Cups would look the absolute bo**ocks.?

I agree the LS's would be too old skool, but your car could carry the cups off.

yup i agree,

im going with the 14x8 steffan cups on 195 45's, the 8 inches wide will give them the DEEP look that i want and hopefully the tyres will have that cool stretched on look. ...know what i mean, sort of radial.

on 195 45's

my only concern is that the rims might not fill the arches enough.
Here's a techy question.

my golf is currently dropped 40 mil which was done at www.awsome-gti.co.uk? but before i owned it. now theyve done a quality job cos the car is absolutely glued to the road.
supposing i want to drop another 20 mil or so, what would i need to change?
the whole shock or what?
that should sort the gap in the arches out if i put the cups on.

 Dunno how the arches will handle that drop with 8x14s on to be honest.  Are you sure you want 14's?

Nah, they might fit but they might not!? I dont know either way!

Also you could try these, they seem to look cool with a Jetta front:
