Here is a pic I took today of the wifes car with her new rims..

Click here

The will be lowered soon..but in the meantime if there are any photoshop guys out there that can lower the car in the pic for the meantime??? I want to see what it will look like..

Thanks!

For a black '02 Passat GLX

Rim #1 - The very popular EVO pictured here

Rim #2 - The RAZR pictured here

I like them pretty much evenly....the ONLY thing that is making me swing towards the RAZR is because you just don't see the wheel on many cars...but you see the EVO everywhere..

Opinions appreciated!

I think they're both way too busy looking for a car that is so understated with such clean lines.

x4 since there are four wheels on a car.

Come on man...it's a Passat! Kraut is so much worse than rice.

My opinion is that you are wasting your money. Still, if I had to choose I'd say the Evo. I think it would look better on your car than the other wheel and the second set will be a bitch to clean.

No worries on the $$$...everyone likes to spend on different things....it's up to the individual.

Poll added!

I'd pick wheel #2, but I think they're both pretty ugly. I prefer solid spokes. But then I suppose that would defeat the purpose of buying aftermarket wheels...

First, you didn't post pictures of the car they'll be going on, that makes it harder to pick.

Second, I wouldn't get either, honestly. If you like one more than the other and want it, then get it, but just know that as soon as you sit inside the car, you probably won't notice anything else different other than feel good about the car's wheels looking nicer.
