I wanted to get new wheels since around 4-5 years but I'm glad I left it for later because I've learned so much in the meantime that led me to a wiser choice. They really make a difference accelerating. :grin:

Received more pictures that were taken during the trip to the Golf meeting I've mentioned before. Here are a couple of them. :smiley:
Note: They were taken before I got my new wheels.

Fitted yesterday these bolt caps for my new wheels after receiving the tip from a more experienced friend:
The set includes:
16x Wheel bolt covers: 321601173AZ37
4x Locking wheel bolt cover: 4F0601173AZ37
Audi removal tool: 8D0012244A
The locking wheel bolt covers will need a bit of modding to get tightly secured in place since I got a set of locking wheel bolts from Still-Bull that isn't completely compatible with any of the OEM covers.
It looks like this after being fitted:
Next mods will be:
-Refurbish the front calipers -> repair seal kit ordered from ebay
-Paint all the calipers black, R20 style.
-Fit the R20 front caliper clips -> ordered from ebay
-Upgrade rear brake discs -> will order some DBA 2811S from a local official dealer
-Upgrade rear brake pads -> ordered from oscaro.es a set of Ferodo DS Performance FDS1083
And that's it for now. :smiley:
Shoduchi:
I still haven't made the mods that I've listed. My mechanic has been very busy and I'm in no rush to have them done, really.
But I have another big news to share, next month if all goes as planned I'll be the new owner of a CW 3 doors Eddie with DSG in mint condition with less than 35.000 miles. :drool:
The owner and I have mutual friends and it has an open project in the same Portuguese forum so I know it's history pretty well. :jumping:
Can't wait to seal the deal. :grin:
