They'll be about a tenner each i'd guess. I bought some RS4 ones for my S4 and they were £14 each and alot bigger.

update.. revo booked for the end of this month  :jumpmove:
            Brake fitting organised but yet to put a date to it (still need to get the dust guards)
            Gti skirts (rear spoiler?) to come. Not that im trying to make a Gti replica (the gti badges are staying well clear) it
            just makes a noticable difference to the looks

so....

as expected the car feels quite a fair bit quicker in more or less all areas and economy is up for comparible, normal slow driving. I managed 61mpg on my 14mile commute home the other day with a 20minute/3mile section of city traffic. But now work is contributing to my mileage i doubt i will be seeing this figure again anytime soon  :grin:

Other than a few occasions when it sounded like fuel was being dumpt when hitting the throttle mid range revs, which stop subsequently the same day, the revo map is faultless and im glad i chose to go with it over the others.

the tyres are the only unhappy party atm in my current campaign of progress, so they will be chuffed to find out that the full GTI brake set-up will be going on some time soon when iv got a free weekend. they should look massive under the standard 16s.... thats if the spokes clear the calipers  :scared: fingers crossed ey!?
other then the above Pescara's are lined up or CH vz033's or LMs or CKs....  :signLOL:
