    • Okay, google is my friend

      They're called Mondial's and were fitted to some Land Rovers it seems, 18 x 8", 5 x 120 stud pattern and offset ET57.

      Can you give me the contact info for the adaptors you bought, any other info appreciated.

      • How's your exhaust run...
        Cat then muffler only?
        Or cat then straight through the whole way no muffler.

        Sounds really good btw.

            I want something thats nuts when I put my foot down but a 'little more refined' than a Commodore when highway/coming down the driveway at 2am.

              Yeah sorry mate currently overseas so not checking forums much, until today as I ended up being sick
              Adapters are from Adaptec Speedware in the US, about $320iirc delivered for a set of 4 which has studs and bolts to mount to hubs
              You will need to source Land Rover nuts too though
              Final specs for mine are now 18x8 +30 all round

              TBH you don't notice it to be that noisy when the windows are up while driving, but apparently from the outside it is a little loud
              imo though is just go straight through, if your worried run a cat but most aftermarket downpipes are made without cats anyway

                • ah DPF, well that's a bit harder as the 103tdi's don't come with DPF so even when you remove the cat you don't get a CEL error
                  Best to talk to Gavin from Custom Code about that if you plan on removing, as I know milltek do a DPF removal downpipe too, well for Golf's at least

                            Is you're car tuned? If so which one are you running. Couldn't see anything mentioned in your thread unless I missed it.

                                Wow man that's awesome. I'd love to know what mine makes. Maybe I I'll whack mine on the dyno one day.
