      it means the body line flows into the lip of the wheel to look perfectly smoothe.
      IE not poked
      intresting, i thought it applied to both looks since technically the barrel is still touching the fender

        just becuase you are touching fender, doesnt make it so.
        it has to appear fluid.

            BUT, i like the jetta. alot.just enough poke to look interesting and not stupid
            I am going to add more camber to the rear and will achieve that look

            I have had them in the backseat of the jetta for about a month now, just havent had the time to put them on cuz of school. So much that I need to get the car ready to show at wekfest!

            Ill let you know how the installation goes with them, but im going to add more camber shims and a toe shim to hopefully not kill a set of tires in 5k miles! I know lots of people have used the great plates on bags but this is the first ive heard of them moving the mounting point for the bags, hopefully its not an issue

                I do agree thAt with everything hidden it looks good but when servicing the air ride it would get under my skin that it was all over the place underneath

                    "A supercar doesn't need to be incredibly wide and have enormous wheels. It must have height, stance and length. It must be as low as possible and reasonably short in length, but it still must be substantial and have an unmistakable attack in its stance."

                      the panels are easy to remove, but if there is stuff on top of them, then i have to move everything off the floor, also most of the stuff is accessible by just folding the rear seats down

                      thanks! And there is a port in the front for the subs, but its not that big, it actually sounds better without the plexiglass on there but its looks funky without it!

                          thanks Eric! I'm taking apart the Tracers tomorrow, sending them out to get polished and ordering a set of gold bolts! yeah its not the most original scheme but polished and the brown look really good together!

                          also need to order those camber shims still, ive been hella lagging lately, have to get the car ready for Wekfest!
