Cheers guys !

Well she won't let me do much to it but I have had the go ahead for bigger brakes and with that comes wheels so I think a set of the ED30 wheels with TTRS brakes underneath should suffice for now!

Oh my... they are awesome... but wheels first once I've done some overtime  :wink:

Will the ED fit nicely? They're not a special size / offset?

Not too sure without checking to be honest I know a lot of people go for the r32 brakes or s3 when upgrading as they are cheaper.

It'll be slow progress as it's not my car so will have to share my time between the Golf and the Type R but I'll get it where it should be !
