Its all very strange to me too! oh and slightly annoying.

How do you mean? What are the characteristics of JoesGTI?  :signLOL: :confused:

ollie288:
I have been thinking about it recently and i have decided that I will not be going any further with this car. I will be returning it back to standard and selling it. In favor of a 1.4 tsi 140.  :party:
Somethings will make there way into the new one somethings will be sold.
The insurance will cost me around the same as the first year on the 1.6 (but I will have the 1years NCB)
So roll on June!  :pomppomp: :laugh:

Ollie,

Slightly random but were/are you happy with how the Audi splits sit on the Golf in terms of their stature?
Knowing you  :wink: I'd of thought you'd wanted them to sit a bit fatter/further out?

I'm thinking of getting the same rims and wanted to know if that offset wasn't perhaps the best, or were you happy with it?

Cheers pal. Be good to get your opinion.

ollie288:
I love the Audi Wheels in terms of design and size. You are right the offset is high and in the pics on the previous page they sit quite far in the arches. I placed 10mm spacers in there and they looked perfect.

I like to drive my car without worrying about going round a corner too hard or too fast. This is another reason I picked a sensible fitting wheel. I could have gone for a wide, low offset wheel but I couldn't be done with rubbing and other issues that come with them.

I am very happy with the wheels.  :happy2:

rdfcpete:
Perfect. 10mm is just the job then?
Mind firing some pics off to me with the spacers fitted fella?

Tbh I've no experience of spacers, what are the implications? Just fit straight to the hub then nothing else needed? I'll be running stock suspension FYI  :smiley:
