 :signLOL:

I'd like to think they're designed for big brakes and have quite a lot of caliper clearance but theres big brakes and then there's BIG brakes.

Brembos are a little chunkier, but I could stick a finger inbetween these.

I wonder if yours are my old wheels? There's not that many sets in circulation.

The cap is 60mm across its front face, but the hole is stepped to about 56 or 57mm at the point where the cap's clips fit. Does this help? I could take a pic?

Si/Mike, still remember them being an awkward size, something like 54mm (one or two mil below the standard fits around eBay and what have you).

I ended up getting some 3D dome vinyl logo things and stuck them on as I couldn't find a VW cap to seat properly. Came off a treat, nothing some AG tar remover couldn't solve.

I'm about to pull the trigger on a set of Turinis. One quick question: with the stock suspension on my Edition 30 will they rub the fender?

Title: Re: Who's had Speedline Turinis before?
Post by: pudding on March 12, 2021, 07:08:18 pm

Been very close to pulling the same trigger myself!  One of the best OEM+ wheels for a MK5 ever  :happy2:

They're 8J ET43 IIRC?  If you hit a deep enough hole mid corner, they will indeed rub the arch.  I've had arch contact from the OEM 7.5J ET51 wheels  :doh:

You can mitigate the problem with stiffer suspension and/or stiffer ARBs though....and also removing the arch liner screw/tab.
