New GTI - First wash
« on: November 25, 2012, 05:09:57 pm »
After waiting 2 weeks I finally got my new GTI!

Spent most of yesterday washing and waxing it :D looks stunning and drives great.  :driver:

Has 4 Avons on it at the moment, anyone else have experience of these on the GTI?

Great colour, wrong part of the forum, but all you need to do is get that back bumper colour coded!

Avons   :sick:

The car will drive much better on the premium brand tyres (increased feedback, sharper turn in, better lateral and acceleration grip).

Goodyear eagle Assymetric 2 gets my vote (auto express magazine tested all top brand tyres for the GTI and found these to be the overall best  :notworthy:)

Michelin Pilot Sport 3's get good feedback too. Try the search function to get some more results  :happy2:
