Somerset New Boy (Now With A Couple Of Pictures)

Not replica pescaras there is a lot of replica bbs CH tho. Where you located if you have jacks etc i don't mind letting you try one of mine on

[Jacker]

Halfway between Taunton & Ilminster, Often in Yeovil (Gf) and Bridgwater (Work) though if they're local to you?

I live In Shepton mallet mate. I'm free most weekends.

[Jacker]

Ah cool! I'll probably take you up on that offer. Thank mate

[MC71]

Pescara's won't fit over a BBK without spacers. If you get them, you'll need to gain at least 5mm so go with 8mm and get some Hubcentric ones and longer bolts, should be ok then.

Or get some BBS VZ's. Look like Pescara's but with a wider rim and better offset, 18x8" ET44. I have these on my Eddy and have loads of room, 13mm to be precise (without spacers) for my Porsche Brembo Calipers.

I still have at least 7-9mm clearance.....

[Jacker]

Perfect! That's just the info I needed, thanks dude.

What's it like with rubbing on the archs?

Welcome Jacker
Lovely TR golf, Im from Burnham not far from Bridgwater.
Somerset dubs on facebook meet up in Taunton at the end of each month, not many MK5's tho.

Hmmm MC71 those wheels are lush with the red centre caps 

[Jacker]

I really want them Vz's but they're too costly and seem to be like rocking horse poop second hand..

I'll have a look at the dub meets, but i seem to find al dub meets seem to be full of 'scene kids' Lol.

[MC71]

^^^ You can get the VZ's from Graeme at GJN_Motorsport on here, if he is still doing his deal. Cheaper than anywhere else when I bought mine....

Thanks fella.

scene kids  in polos and mk2s, the Somerset dubs meet is like this. Some of the admin are also part of the MK3 owners club too.

I picked mine up second hand but your right they don't come up very often 


Mine with black caps

[Jacker]

I'll just have to look around then!

I might be lucky. I want them in black though.
