Thank you! Do they fit the 18" with 225 set up ok?

Thanks again.

Yeah, they fit very well mate, the picture I posted was with 225 x 18". When fully tightened around the wheels it leaves approx 8" of wheel left showing. Plenty of coverage for stacking.

my Mk2 robbed me of £65 quid in fuel, £140 quid in Road Tax, and let me down against a 300Bhp Focus ST3!

tbf, my Tfsi is standard with her little 197! ...so now she needs some special under the bonnet treats! i wasnt impressed!

Had the geometry done again by another company as the car was still pulling to the left despite being done just over a month ago. Now it's spot-on. :)

Thumbs up to Tyreland, Southampton. Highly recommended.

Problems; A missfire that plugs, coilpacks & fuel filter havent solved. Think I have a boost leak too.

Switching back to OEM revised PCV tomorrow and taking the BSH catch can off to see if it makes any difference...

Sprayed the front grill surround satin black. Also did the LEON lettering on the boot as well but it didn't look right against the grey bodywork so took them off completely.

Also got to test the ABS out when some twat pulled out in front of me on a roundabout. Missed them by a gnats gonad. Knob.
