That exhaust ruins it all for me ! 30 on the back? How arent you scrubbing to high hell, Mines dropped on its arse with 20mm and it scrubs like a ****er!

The porsche wheels have a high offset, like et50 odd so with 30mm adpaters they would be et20, the bbs with 20mm spacers are et15. Daft fooker haha

Car looks cool mate, exhaust is ruining it for me too im affraid. I'd almost bet allot of money your car wouldnt scrub with the adjusters out at the back! I had 17x8.5's with 30mm adapters with adjusters out and it was fine. Get front down too :p

no worries yeah exhaust was a take it or stick with the peashooter for a year or so which i couldnt bare, only a 1.4 so is just purely for noise, was bricking it when i first saw it as it didnt look that big when i bought it ha but it purs nicely and only grumbles when foot is down so does the job, i admit it does look like chav scum though :cry: fits nicely in the space provided though :) thanks, Adam

i never saw a mk4 with them on before i bought them, when i put them on i came on here and saw someone else had them, they are sexy though!

Im happy with the ride hieght ATM as i've just spend a lot on a service and tracking etc so the ride is perfect, also contemplating selling or swapping two of my 30mm adapters for 40mms to get some more poke

Lamin-x is your best bet for the fogs matey, most durable stuff anyway! Dead easy to work with too, did my old fogs in yellow with that.

8 inch one the front is where its at :D how wide are your rears? I ran 8.5 inch et20 with a 205 tyre all the way down without adjusters on the old one, no probs at all:

Ye mine are 8j front and back will et53. Going to try some of my mates 45mm adapters on tomoro and work it out from there!
I have custom springs on my weitec coilies tht are 2.5 inches shorter than the standard ones so going to have them as low as possible with plenty of stretch!
Would ideally be best to have the car on bags but not got the money!

yeah DAB radio! same as sportrider but without the cupra rear bumper, in hindsight i would have prefered the sportrider but the one i looked at was grey and more expensive so went for th red that was gleeming and cheaper haha! thinking of putting the DAB back in as i miss 1xtra on the radio...plus the bluetooth in this sony is playing up[:@]

No, I have bought new shorter ones! I sent the original spings off to a company in shefield to measure the spring rates etc and then they made me some new ones - all for less than 100 notes delivered!
