Cheers guys !

Well she won't let me do much to it but I have had the go ahead for bigger brakes and with that comes wheels so I think a set of the ED30 wheels with TTRS brakes underneath should suffice for now!

Seen this?

Oh my... they are awesome... but wheels first once I've done some overtime  :wink:

Will the ED fit nicely? They're not a special size / offset?

Not too sure without checking to be honest I know a lot of people go for the r32 brakes or s3 when upgrading as they are cheaper.

Keep your eye on the sales threads there seems to be a lot of brakes for sale ATM.

It'll be slow progress as it's not my car so will have to share my time between the Golf and the Type R but I'll get it where it should be !
