Sam, I suggested 10mm at the rear with SS+ and Virdee mentioned it was just a touch too wide so I went 8mm all round...
Sorry Mof - don't want to do you out of a sale

I got 10mm on the rear, no rubbing issues at all.

Nice one!
I may switch to GY Aysm and I wasn't sure if these are a slightly wider wall...
Hey, what's 2mm anyway

Cheers Neil, if my offer is accepted then it'll be a calculated risk.
They would be tried out on both cars which run SS+ setups, one has GY F1 and the other Pilot Sport tyres. I'm thinking they'd work with the Michelin tyres which would be my preference.

Nice one Sam

Your Avant and 'donor' both run SS+? Nice find to have both with that OEM feature. Although, it would've been interesting to drive a non-SS+ to compare - of which I have not done for any length of time...

Yes the spec was good and ticked a lot of boxes which helped the decission to buy it.
Same here, I tried out a few non SS+ equiped cars when looking to buy originally. They felt a little softer/nicer around town but the direction change and increased body roll was not as good as the SS+ setup. Stu would be the best person to comment having now swapped his suspension over to the SS+ setup, actually it might still be a bit early to comment.
Spacers will be on there way thanks to Moff777
Certainly won't be working with my RS5 winter wheels which are like running a 5mm spacer thanks to the lower ET24 offset. That reminds me, I must see if they fit over the Ceramics now

Yes, I guess to have the sheer luxury of a SS and SS+ to compare back to back would be the best case scenario. Stu would indeed be the best to comment...
