Scirocco r mods

[Andych]

Here you go Mac.. this will give you a better idea of how a darker wheel changes with light and perspective.
Mine are actually Dark Grey but can look Black or even have a blueish tinge.....

For any Rocco owners who like the look... these will be up for sale very shortly complete with tyres (245 x 35 Continental Sport 3)

OK Andy, these look good. What ar they? Quite convincing.

Just as importantly what are you replacing them with, or do we have to wait for the big reveal like Bec?

[Andych]

The current ones are a Breyton GT Replica in 19x8.5...
The replacements... hmmm no reveal until they are on the car... but they are forged...and definitely not black..
Think Staggered...

Andy is such a copy cat.. I'd better get a move on and get mine on.. Just waiting for tyres..

[Mac135]

Bec seems like you have been waiting for your tyres longer than you were waiting for the car.

[she_dub]

Lol Ian.. What can I say? Good things are worth waiting for?

[she_dub]

Andy, are you holding out on us with your wheel reveal?

[Andych]

Not really... they went on last week but I have been pretty crook since and concentrating on a few other things...
still not quite ready to reveal though...plus I need to find somewhere I can take good pics other than my driveway.
I have found the limit for the rear wheel arches though...

Yes running 335 rears will do that.

I recently plasti dipped my 19" talladegas black with a light coat of gloss (more of a sheen than a gloss). I have a candy white scirocco R and I must say it looks mean!! One of the best mods I've done. Also looking at installing my big break kit and down pipe next week. (all accompanied by a stage 2 reflash from APR.

You will check that the Talladegas will clear the BBK you have in mind wont you

[RoccoR]

Oh don't say that!! I'm certain that they will. I'm getting it done next Wednesday so I'll find out then.

I would check it out prior to paying the $$, I do have some spacers you could buy if you need them..with the correct bolts too.. 10 mm front and 12 mm rear... pumping those Tallas out to the edge... makes a big difference.

I will have BBK very soon (sorted this week) as well...and it will be a very cost effective kit giving you a 6 pot Brembo caliper and either single piece or 2 piece disc....

[RoccoR]

Yeah I already have the BBK cos I had them on my GTI Mk6 and now putting them on my scirocco. If they fit on the GTI with 18" rims I'm almost certain that the 19" talladegas will swallow them quite easily. The rotors are 375mm and I know they'll fit also.
