Are those wheels 17 x 8.5 mate?

If yes, do you have any issues with scratching the arches all the time as i am looking into some 18 x 8.5 for my beeza...

 

[Guffers]

Wheels are 17 by 8.5 aye, never had any probs scraping unless im really hammering it and the back end is squatting down into the arches.

Rarerims have a special on these very wheels right now!

 

[Joens]

Whatever German engineer thought this would be a a good idea needs shot! Its the same as trying to breathe through a straw!

You know why the IC pipe is like that? Because every cupra outside UK has headlight washers

 

[Adam_]

Nice car!

 

[brwmogazos]

Well arround here only the ibiza cupras with stock xenon lights have headlight washers.

so 90% of them dont have any washers arround here...

My newest addition is a litre of Halfords Anti-freeze.



Stuff i picked up from an unnamed garage in Stirling froze in the radiator a week ago and caused major grief.

Checked the bottle and found the best disclaimer ever:

"Not for winter use"


WTF?


Good news is , - halfords stuff is safe to -34C, so if it freezes we really are in trouble!

I don't mean to be pedantic, but I've just read the entire SCN history of your car and the wheels turn out to be 17 x 8... and I've finally decided I want a set because they're almost the only wheels that are lightweight and will clear the brakes!

It failed an MOT due to a broken alloy, (pothole, another story altogether) so i bought a new set of the same wheels, will get pics up shortly.

Ouchie, would you say that was down to the lightweight design of the alloys, or just a ruddy huge pothole?

 

[ScottHmk4]

you got a whole new set? jeez someones okay for money lol.

 

[oneofthetwins]

Aye am on his old ones ha

 

[cupra.al]

Aye am on his old ones ha

hand me downs

 

[R1ch85]

Aye am on his old ones ha

even the broken one?

 

[Guffers]

Wheels are the only thing connecting you to the road, so best not to skimp on them I think. Damage was caused by a the largest pothole IN THE WORLD!

And new wheels look schweet! Pics soon as it's drier!

 

[oneofthetwins]

even the broken one?

Okay let me correct it. Iam on 3 of the wheels other one is ordered
