they run 1.6 16v's putting out 125bhp (without mods) so his might be more!

too tasty for words, what alloys are ya getting?

Its ones from a passat vr6
Their only 6.5J which are definatly not wide enough for me :lol: but they'll do till i do the other mods to it :)

And yeah 125bhp roughly, some were 130. No mods to engine yet their coming in time. Engine bay need a good clean but gonna get new piping and a BMC CDA for it and give it a scrub at the same time. Once its cleaned heavily once then its easy to keep ontop of it

Yeah i know the guy from clublupo, hes sold them on now and getting some different wheels. Dunno what hes after though :)

Im planning 7J on front and 8J on the back. Nothing too drastic but being a GTI it can still handle perfect on that set up

Keeping them for winter time and for when i sell up at end of the year, or next summer

Nothing to update really, bought my alloys in and their sitting in the shed
Still trying to sell my other ones but they wont shift for decent money.
Waiting till im back from t in the park then alloys are getting redone in another style (very different!) and stretchy tyres on them :)
Some smoothing/painting before they go on though
