Title: 18" BBS CH-R and BBK; What will fit?
Post by: FJ1000 on October 14, 2016, 08:10:38 am

Hey guys

Just picked up a set of BBS CH-R's, 18x8.5 ET47, which will be going on the car soon.

Next upgrade will be brakes. Does anyone have these wheels and a big brake kit? Interested to hear what will fit ideally without any spacers (or very small ones) so I don't get any rubbing issues. Want to stick to 225/40/18 tyres too.

I'm thinking about brembo 18z and 350mm disc combo, or TTRS/RS3 setup.

Thanks!

Interested to hear from others too..

Got a few upgrades on the golf being fitted ATM, and would like to get some better brakes on soon.
