Yeah I’ve seen a deeper dish version of them. The guy I got my car from told me he got them from an Rs7. I’ll have it out over the next couple of days and I’ll check for you👍 It’s got 255/35/20 tyres on there at the moment.

Any part numbers off the wheels would be good. :thumbs:

That makes sense, the RS7 ones are the 9 I would imagine and the RS6 are wider and slightly different offset, hard to find them

Gave it a well needed bath seeing as the new wheels were all fitted and looking clean yesterday

Looking fantastic. :thumbs: Just a tad too low for me, though.

Surprisingly fine, actually no different to the 19’s but I think I had a perished/dodgy tyre anyway, but as our roads are “fun” it’s a constant game of dodge the pothole to keep them good

Drop links need done also so that will eliminate the clunking I’m getting soon

Shopp- It’s on Billies, came that way and I can’t be arsed adjusting them, I quite like how it sits though, clears the drive better with that extra inch, it always matters

What other ones are there? I have a feeling the PO said B16 but I could be talking <beep>, I’ll have to see if I can find the advert text or look when I’m under doing drop links soon

B16 = PSS9, but there are also now PSS10 and the PSS, the latter of which are not adjustable for damping.

They have been on for a while so i assume PSS9 then, i might even have the invoice for when they were fitted, i'll see what that says

What is noticeable if they are dampening adjustable, adjuster internal or external?

Your disks are so clean. Did you do something to them?
