RS3 Front wishbones
« on: August 11, 2014, 04:20:31 pm »
Me again!


I have the opportunity to buy some RS3 front wishbones from a 2012 car.

Are they a straight swap like the TT items.. I.e wider track


Many Thanks!

Same as S3 arms.  Track wont be wider, just lighter.

Cheers! Is It the TTRS\S front arms that give you the track then?

Anyone in the know on retrofitting the ally arms and what models give the track?


Thanks!

It's the TT arms that give the extra track, iirc 10mm, they also have adjustable ball joints for negative camber  :happy2:
