Hi Jonny, what did you have to do to get it down to 1175kg? I think with the DSG and roll cage I'll struggle to get anywhere near that.
NeilM:
I wanted a spare set of wheels for the track and looked at OZ Alleggerita HLT's but discovered they wont clear the VWR 6 pot's :confused: Big thanks to RR for checking the size of his for me, VWR have a scale drawing of the brake set up which was sent to OZ technical Dept in Italy, and none of their wheels will clear the 6 pot's.
These were on the shelf @ Awesome Gti and have plenty of clearance,
Neuspeed RSe07 18x8 in Graphite, nice and light 8.7kg, the VW badge fits :happy2:
The difference:
BBS CH & Toyo R1R's = 22.5kg
Neuspeed RSe07 & Toyo R888's = 19.7kg
saving over 2.5 a corner :happy2:
Also lucky to get a set of Toyo R888's (demon tweeks)
I wanted to keep them in the boot and swap them at the track but it was a bit tight.
Had to take out the tail gate linning.
But the angle of the rear light wire plug was hitting the tyre, had to grind of the locating tabs and spin it 90 degrees.
And tidy up cables, carbon panel to come.
Neil :happy2:
