Matt's Accuair GTI - Now A MK5 R32!

[Toby]

I think they would look so nice if your arches was sitting on the lips' so you would need a better stretched tyre and like you say 20mm spacers!

[matttrance28]

Sadly the tyre size is the lowest i can go, so there's nothing i can do about that lol

I've got the choice of major archwork, camber, the smaller adaptors which i've bought


Camber wise, 1.5 Degrees or 2??

[Lewy]

Surely you can opt for 195/40's?

[matttrance28]

They don't exist in 18s do they?

[Lewy]

For some strange reason I thought the Carlines were 17's.

How about 215/35's?

[matttrance28]

I see 

I thought about the 205 35 but didnt see much difference between the 40 and 35

thats why I went with the 205 40 

getting them fitted tomorrow whilst im at work by a friend, asked him to not mark them and he said thats no fun then! 

[tweed]

Going 35 from 40 is huge! Will give you a lot more room

[matttrance28]

ill see what the 40s do and go from there will definitely need camber though lol

Air ride is full of win, stuck in a carpark after a concert, so many people stare at your car [Y]

Well it's been enough time to sort the car out to how i want it kind of,



I've sadly ruined one of the wings when rolling, well i say rolling, i hit it with a rubber mallet to help bend it out and have ruined the arch, so i need a new one, not sure if i can get that done in time for UD, so one arch will be ruined but hey ho, only noticeable up close[] it's rippled, it adds character...[lol-lol]



Well the headlining is complete, just need to put it in the car, sprayed up the interior plastics satin black, don't have pictures of it all complete as i'm not bothering until it's all back in lol



but here's some when painting

That's wet paint, now it's dried it looks oem []





My Saturday consisted of camber fitting and arch rolling []

I went with 2 degrees of camber, only did the rears, this is the difference...
