What summer wheels are they? they look wiiiiiiiiide  :love:

Dave

Yeh thats cause they are wide Dave lol 10.5 rears with 215/40 and 8.5 fronts with 205/40s. There Oz Futura 3 peice splits,rebuilt with BBS RS Gold Bolts (as the OZ bolts require a special tool to split) Rear dish is about 3.5-4" Depending on where you measure from! There currently in the process of being split down, repolished and painted. I got the wheels with the car and have never been a fan of the grey! But just wanted to get the air and rear bumper fit for this show season. Then put a proper stamp of my own on the car for next season! So there getting done along with changing the lower bumper grills!

Saw this at Ultimate Dubs..  :happy2: Looks spot on fella!!

That's some absolute mad camber on the rear!! Im guessing thats set at Maximum negative camber? -3?

TBH Mate im not really sure but there is ALOT lol Ill msg the lad i bought it off and find out, but as its all been done properly and all alligned tyre waer is even! across the tyre and i ran them for all summer! If anything the fronts wear worse but if you look at the pics they look a bit postivey camber to me! :happy2:

that looks awesome, how much did u spend on the airlift?

Thats a question that really really annoys me! i get asked all the time! Mostly by little chavs who are just being nosey 2 hats! Im sure Al can back me up on this one!!! I Dont mind telling people who are genuinly intrested and considering air ride, but when you get people asking you the first thing they say to you is "How much was that mate" it kinda winds me up! If you realy wanna know i can give you Plush's details and you can email him for a quote! But it was a "few k" lets leave it at that!  :P

Hey Phil.
Have you considered the retrimmed ED30 seats that are on ED38?
http://www.edition38.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=403558

If the ones you have at the moment are leather GTI ones, they tend to go for around £7/£800

Thanks guys......and Tara  :star:

Can't wait to change the wheel colour! I've never been a fan of the grey! But I figured I'd give them at least one show season before I changed em! Lad I bought the car off had plans to put it on air an he had the wheels done, so thought I'd show him how it would look! Time to make the car mine now!  :happy2:
