Hello All,

Stumbled across this forum while browsing the net for some new wheels, hehe! Looks like a good site!

Had mt GTI about 6 months now, no mods yet - credit crunch! lol Hoping for some soon though...

Thanks guys! Just spotted some ed30 wheels in the classifieds...not sure if they are sold yet!

Love the CW colour myself, partly why I sold my R32 and went GTI instead!

**edit**Just one mod done so far, Blefin remap  :happy2:

Well the car came with the Bluefin on it - I was pleasantly surprised when it felt a fair bit quicker than the R32!

It picks up pretty damn quick, although I'm on stock 17'' wheels and Pirelli P6000 tires, which are driving me mad in the wet as they really cannot put the torque down  :sad: I'm hoping some 18's and decent tyres will help, then I'm considering Koni FSDs. If anyone has any other good ideas for helping deliver the power, please speak up!
