well my monday started very poor when after i planted my foot off a roundabout i nearly went into a barrier, thn the tyre pressure sensor came on, pulled up into a laybe to find the tyre smoking and looking like this,



didnt have my bar and socket that fits the wheels, the standard vw supplied one doesnt fit so had to get the AA out,

here is the culprit


how the cars rolling at the min, gna try n get tyre repaired at dinner but not sure if theres gna be any damage to the side wall so may well be a new tyre



had to get a new tyre monday afternoon, the tyre wall was at the bottom of the tyre when the guy took it off

got em off a member off here mate, keep an eye out for them, i will warn you they are ridiculously expensive for what they are but finished the brakes off well i thought

i like lamborghini wheels but not the colour of them. rest looks mint

they were never gonna be to everyones taste, the gf isnt a fan either lol


on the hunt for some coilovers too, but been the typical yorkshire man i am, i want the best set possible for nothing lol so proving very difficult
