Rich, I was under the impression that this wheel is just a normal 5 stud wheel with a pretty centre cap!

Nice, I really like the shape of these, they're so different. I'm assuming you're going to go for an ECU map at some point? TDI's make epic torque gains, and with the extra stopping power you now have, it would be rude not to. Maybe a downpipe and DPF delete?

Not sure what to do yet.......I don't want to map it really until the warranty runs out in May next year. I was considering a tuning box as DTUK appear to be getting some brilliant results but when I told vRS Alex, his face did a contortion that has made me think twice.

If I do get it remapped, I will consider the Darkside Deveolpments downpipe (decat thingy) an S3 intercooler or similar like the Peron one that Alex has at the same time I think.

All that said, I don't find it that slow. I cruise most places anyways but I can now stop like a  :evilgrin:

Thanks.

I've liked the wheels for ages, I'm just not sure they suit the CC!
I think I prefer the Neuspeeds in Bronze.

Thanks Rex! I'm really enjoyng the car, it's fantastic. Super comfy and it handles a lot better now as well.

I agree about the wheels being to racy, but I would like like much lighter wheels and if anything the lighter brakes have only made me want them more, knowing the improvement it makes. Hohum.
