    are you planning on going lower??
    IMO those Jaz Mesh's are ugly as hell in person. Yes they are supposed to be similar to Supermesh but they aren't.

    It's a tough question...depends on what kind of style you want.

        sorry dude i like the 18's better...i think they'll look better than a smaller wheel. But thats just my opinion

          in my wheel search, i found out i really like the mesh style... but i dunno, the one you have look pretty good too. Mesh would look good, just hard to tell if its worth changing. Have to find some pics.

          ...guess that wasn't much of an opinion

            go for 16's or 17's. 18's are too big for mk3 imo

            something like:

              If you are planning on DUMPING the car, then go wide...go mesh..take off your tint...and damn you've got one HELLA clean car.

                Now for some pics of white Jettas....
                IMO 18" is tooooooo big on MK3's.
                I'm all for dumpin it on 17's or 16's.

                  Sorry, I'm going to have to go with Nismo on this one whole heartedly, all those cars he posted are hot, and smaller wheels just look right on Mk3's.

                  I don't mind the meshes but I'm not sure it's enough of a change to be worth shelling out all the cash. It's hard though because all the cool popular wheels are done a LOT already. I don't know though, the 17's could look good. I chose "get 17's" just 'cause they'll be smaller *shrug*

                          Roll your fenders as much as possible, have the tire streched a little bit, Since there wider in the back, run the coil a little higher in the back (rake).

                            Small and wide is nice, especially with nice and low, but 17s can be good as well but 18s I think are too big for a MK3 like the others mentioned.

                            I like Kerscher Carmona's myself

                              16's or 17's for sure. I personally like any of the above Borbets... you could also do some Ronal LS Mesh Wheels
