£790 delivered  :cry: just need the cash for tyres. pay day Friday so all will be sorted on the weekend.
was thinking on running 215/40/18 on the fronts and 225/40/18 on the rears.

ive been looking for rims for ages and never wanted to pay this much but these kept popping up so I bit the built lol :laugh:

Maybe im the only 1 but I love these wheels but IMO they look gash on a mk4 seen 2 recently and I didn't think they suited the car!

That's exactly why I went with the 3SDM 0.01's They cost £700 odd with tyres (same spec your after) my wheels are also 8.5j front an 9.5j rear

Then I discovered there was no way at all to get the front on without spacers so I then had to fork out for hub-centric spacers, then I had to get longer bolts and locking bolts, all in all, total cost to get my wheels on was £998 on the nose! so be prepeared buddy, I really wanted the 0.06 but I think I totaled it to estimate cost around £1200-£1400 fitted.

Post by: 1.8Tgolf_Chris on 13 March 2014, 09:13
I think it looks good mate actually, all I would try is to get it abit lower just kissing the tyre :tongue:
Title: Re: look what mr postman left me today what do you think?? update rims on!!!
Post by: mcgee9t2 on 13 March 2014, 10:24
think they look ok on mk4s, but you have to be really really low to pull it off. i.e. air.

but i think there massively over rated, same with all 3sdm wheels

Post by: xtetx on 13 March 2014, 11:13
Look sick mate, hope your happy with them!
Title: Re: look what mr postman left me today what do you think?? update rims on!!!
Post by: wolfie1981 on 13 March 2014, 21:11
well happy with them now ive dropped it a little lower and fitted the front splitter just waitng on the rear splitter coming.
also fitted my 3" ebay exhaust and serviced her. but need the rear tail pipe made shorter as it sticks out too much
I will add pics soon once car has been mopped and waxed. :smiley:

Post by: wolfie1981 on 16 March 2014, 18:44
