every one makes comment about the carpet !!!  but to be honest that carpet costs less than garage floor paint and is much better on your knees (when polishing the car ) 10 mm spacers just enough imo needs about a 20 mm drop next :cool:

Carpeted garages are amazing  :lipsrsealed:

The spacers suit the car really well. I have actually noticed that our GTi's 18" monza's stick out as much as yours do and they standard? Does the UK have drifferent settings or are the Pescara's just different in offset?

Does anyone know if the offset of the pesky's and the monza 18's are different?
