Hey i was wondering if anyone still remembered the website that showed pictures of just TT's with different types of rims.
I don't remeber where i saw it at, but i remember it had tons of pages of TT owners showing off their rims, and it gives you insight if you plan on upgrading your rims also, you get a sneak peek at what they look like before you buy them.

I don't know if you mean this one:

If not, I hope someone puts a link to what you're referring to so I can check it out, too.

That's the best collection I know of.

Speaking of which, does anyone know exactly what these are? It says they're by ADR, but that's not very specific:

BINGO

also i wanted theses wheels below with this staggared fitment, but my concern is, i want my wheels to stick out and look aggressive like the bmw m3. what size spaces would i need to achieve this look? i don't want dramatic change but i would like them to poke out abit, just right inside of the fender.

after using http://www.senebphoto.com/Auto/TT-offsetcalc.htm
I estimated that i would need 15mm spacers all around to bring the tires out more leaving the front at 4.35mm inside the fender
and the rear at .65 inside the fender. This is all without the tires added on so im guessing it will fill out some more space once tires are included. What do you think about the spacer sizing?

I'd say wait until you get your wheels, mount them, then measure your wheel's distance from where you would like it to sit. Make a plumb line= take a piece of string with a washer on the end, tape the opposite end to your fender, and measure the space from the string to the wheel once the string is hanging straight withno movement. That distance = the spacer size you need. Order it, wait a week, and put 'em on. Problem solved.

Or just trust in the guide, which has been referred to people (including me) many times

Ok, also when i buy spacers, it tells me on the website for the spacers that i will need to purchase longer wheel bolts. Do i need to do this? If so where can i get the bolts from?
