Cheers Neil  :smiley:

I like them better than, dare i say it your vwrs ! :tongue:
which 1s did you sell ? and any further on with the Zorst  :rolleyes:

Questions questions  :laugh:

I sold the OZ 19"s in the end and have kept the VWR 18"s for daily/track use.

I agree the love in the looks stakes win hands down, but they trash the ride / handling over the lightweight VWR 18"s.

Turbo Back Exhaust is being fitted on tuesday  :evil:

Yep i really like them! Did they fit straight on? Any issue's? and what offset are they?

Yep straight fit, they are 19x8.5 with a 45 offset.

Really need to be running 235 tyres as the current 225's look a little stretched for my liking.

Even with mine being lowered I have no issues with rubbing etc (despite my best efforts chucking it in to some tight mini roundabouts todays  :grin:)

My 235s catch very slightly on full lock with standard ride height, so be careful if your thinking of changing them with yours been lowered  :undecided:

Odd, my 235s don't. Maybe it's because they're only 18", or else it's a RHD issue?

My Vwrs are 235/35/19s Volkswagen Racing recommended 225s for no rubbing issues but i went for the wider tyre,
only a very slight rub on full lock, dosn,t bother me as it is very slight :wink: :tongue:
