Golf R.....Alloy hubs or not?
« on: May 25, 2011, 11:17:46 am »
Does anybody happen to know if the Golf R has alloy front and or alloy rear hubs, the normal 3CO part numbers for the lightweight suspension parts don't apply but I believe the S3 has alloy rear hubs and has a 1KO part number..

So I'm confused (doesn't take much)

The TTRS and quattro TT's are 3CO 505 433G on the rear and are defo alloy as I've got one in my hand

Thanx in advance

Unfortunately from what I know the R has not.
Cast steel arms and hubs only.

Think positive:  they can be retrofitted.  :wink:

Team Dynamics or Ultraleggera wheels + S3 arms and hubs + BBK
+ upside down dampers = significiently reduced unsprung masses
