I'm looking to get this set from Raderwerks, which are 8" in the front, and 9" in the back:

I've been looking all around the net for pics of a BLACK MKV with this style of wheels, but I can't find any, except for this one:

I'd like to see it with a drop too, if possible! :)

i just wanna say that setup will make your car's handling worse. since its a FWD you don't need that much traction out back. plus rubbing. but i will look cool if thats what you're going for.

you like them? i put the other ones like a 2 weeks ago, thats my car in that link, and trust me the handling is not worse at all, its so stable especially with my neuspeed springs. and BTW those rims will not fit on our car the offset is wrong, i wanted those too but raderwerks told me the offset is wrong and will totally rub on our cars.

What's the offset on those rims? Anything 40 or below is bad news, especially for 17" rims and higher.

9" wide and a less then 40 offset won't work for you. You would need to roll your fender and still may rub.
I run a 7.5" wide wheel with 38mm offset and am just fine. 8" would be ok also

mine are 9 inch in the back and they have an offset of 45 and work perfectly with no rub.
