Default How you guys think? My NKB Lava with poor PS Moon disc....

I really have hard time to decide what wheels to put on my Orange box, Now I kind like the idea of moon disk hubcap..........so maybe you guys can give me some ideas.

It has NKB full kit already (thanks to David @ Memoryfab :D), and will be lowered with Tein S-tech very soon.

kit = awesome...but doesn't blend well with moon discs ;)

...now going with the NKB cups would definately complete the Euro Sporty look :D

Best bodykit I've seen. The photoshop on the moon disks is kind of crude, but if you're going to drop the cash on a nice bodykit you might as well go all out and get some 16x8 dish rims to complete the look.

need to drop it fast...I want that kit so bad. Also you gotta put some deep dish mesh wheels on it to complete the look after the drop.

Might as well go all the way. Get the any of the NKB wheels in 16x9! I think it would look really good dropped 3" too...

Did the kit require any mods to the bumper bars/supports?

16x9 NKB cup will definitely be my first choice, but since I am in the stage to start a new business so $$$ is really a concern now ($1100 + new tires). However, I am looking for something cheap and still looks good....at least i have something to cover the ugly steel wheels.....

For the euro style, check VWvortex forums for used deals. Brand new, I think you can get a set of Schmidts for aroun $1100... I think. Check out Tunershop.com...I like these:
