What did you and your MKV do today?

Hmmm, the Pro's def seem comfier than the Sportline's and just the same amount of roll/stiffness as them - very little. :happy2: I had BBS CH reps on before my current wheels. they were 18 x 8 ET 45 so got nice anf friendly with my passengerside arch, never the drivers side tho. :stupid: I had done the screw arch mod too. Now that I'm up a few more MM's I'm so tempted by the BBS VZ's in gunmetal. Pity Christmas has raided my piggy bank first. :confused:

Give it a good coat of wax ready for the winter

Hubba Hubba, that is on stunning car. Very OEM+(ish) Just goes to show that gunmetal/anthracite wheels look good on virtually every colour of car. T'will be the colour I go for when my wheels get refurbed over winter.
Top notch. :happy2:
sundance:
Discovered 2 things:
1) My car definitely feels more 'whooshy' on Tesco Momentum 99 than it does on V-Power :surprised:
2) VW Twickenham cannot set tyre pressures properly as I found mine were out (only did them last week)
Correcting the pressures and with the better fuel has resulted in more :driver:

You know, I've heard the same a couple of times now that you mention it. Strange and similar that one side would rub. Here's something I had forgotten to think about considering ride comfort, differing dampers and their condition...right?
