Is the ride not harsh as hell ? And surely if the wheel is a 20, the tyres should be 30 ? Not 35 ? Hence me thinking the ride will be harsh ?
I have to say Mark (I am on PSS9's) that its the most comfortable coilover set up I've ever experienced. Even with the 20's. Sure the weight of the car had a lot to do with that but either way. Its firm sure. But never do I think its uncomfortable. I am amazed by that too... I expected it to be terrible.

Generally I think aftermarket wheels look rubbish. But both the ones on this thread look pretty slick IMVHO.
The trick is to stick with OEM Audi wheels.

Good grief - hadn't spotted that was my old Beast!! :shock: :shock:

Can't say that it's my cup of tea - but then it hasn't yet got the white leather interior to complement the "oops my suspension just collapsed" look! :drink: :drink:

Still, it will appeal to Golfather!! :rocker:

Happy days!

11j is insane.

Seconded on invoking rule 1.

Is that the slightly sparkly one? Considered that for the hoops on my Honda but went with the 'iridescent bronze matt'. Might pick up a kilo of the iron stone to do the peelers over winter, it is a smart colour!
