My matt black Mk2 - Vid from trackday at Llandow

Finally could afford some tyres for my compo's



Think they look hard as, well pleased with how they came out.



This is how they looked when I got them.



Also fitted my FK Konigsports, still need to get it properly set up, but it rides so much better than my old shocks and springs, even with the front lower still.

And I've started stripping the interior out.




I'm keeping a list of what everything weighs, stripped around 50kg so far.

look good how wide and Et are yours

 

They are 6.5x15 et41.

I know they're skinny, but they fit perfectly under the arches without any work needed.

 

i think u have seen mine before 8" et0

 

Yeah, they are pretty mental. You actually going to fit them to anything?

 

altern8, fancy swapping those rfx's for some mint ATS cups?

 

TH's they really suit the car, nice work

Pete

 

sweet!


are you spraying the inside of the car as well though?!


tim

 

Lookin good, what happened to your other black wheels?

 

are you sure you didn't put them on inside out
they are soo wide,

 

Thanks for the comments.

Tim - The interior will eventually be sprayed matt black as well, when I can be bothered. I've got my G60 brake setup, poly bushes and twin weber 40s to go on first.

GolfD - The old wheels are going on my Mk1 driver.

 

Just a quick pic of the Mk2 with the front end as low as possible, a full 120mm. I ran it like this for a few weeks, but it caught the arch slightly so I've raised it till I get the arches rolled.



The wheels have been receiving mixed reviews from people, not that I care because I think they look awesome and they are need to fit my G60 brakes.

Feel free to give your opinion.

 

I think the car looks smart mate, and really liking the wheels

 

To low if you plan to use it on track.

 

I was just experimenting in that pic, to see if could be driven 120mm lower, which it can suprisingly well. I plan to have it properly set up using corner weights once its all finished, and then just adjust it depending on whether it is being driven on the road or the track. But while I'm on the road I'll have it as low as it can practically go.

haha nice



i wish i could send my mk1 that low without touching arches.



i havent dropped mine all that much but still hit the arches



loving the wheels though, i like what youve done

 

Finally decided to get some half decent pictures with a half decent camera.









Someone decided to kindly modify the rear at a roundabout recently.



Also stripped the interior a little more, got some nice seats on the way as well, so I'll be able to strip it fully and spray it up when they are ready to fit.

 

Looks hard as a coffin nail!

 

that is one sexy vw


what tail pipe is that, quite like the look of that.


and isthat as cosworth is see sticking out of the garage, u got any pics that baby.

 

Thanks for the comments.

It's a Supersprint Grp A system with 60mm tailpipe, the same diameter as the whole system.

The cossie is my old man's



He's just bought a new engine for it, should be capable of at least 400bhp.
