Looks like the VWRs may be going back on
« on: 24 May 2011, 20:54 »
Tried fitting a big brake kit to the GTI today and the CHs wouldn't clear the R8 set up  :angry:
unless i space the wheels out and fit a wide arch kit  :grin: so i tried them behind the VWRs and they look the dogs danglies and clear easily with the curved spoke design  :cool:

Anybody want a new set of CHs ? :rolleyes:

Those VWR wheels need big brakes IMO.


You really thinking of selling the CH's?

Spoke to the guy today and the 19s will go on with a bit of messing with the ride height, and maybe a spacer to push them out a bit from the inner arch cos they are 8.5" wide with 235 tyres on   :undecided: :undecided:
