My sorta new mk3

Flat head screwdriver + mallet = solves everything

If that fails get a bigger hammer. Leverage/force is your friend.

Leverage/force is your friend.

Can't stress this enough. Use a screwdriver with a long handle too... like kilometres long; the more leverage the easier it is on you and the more chance you may have of busting it off.

They were being a right bitch. Plastered on there. The heat didnt help to those spacers were seriously hot

[junyip_69]

hahaha ive given up for today ill give it a serious crack tomorrow, hopefully the wheels stay on for the drive home tonight D: thanks again brook for coming down, wouldn't have found out about it for god knows how long!

[brookfromhamilton]

Yeah mate all good! Glad we got onto it accidentally hah

[junyip_69]

yo, just anyone have a set of dynamic steels? ive always loved the look of diamond racings wheels but costs an arm and a leg just to ship em over. Came across these sets of similar wheels which are located locally but not sure if they're either completely different of practically the same? they come in 15x8 for around 80 bucks a wheel..

[HaydEn]

You should be in luck. Heap of civic dudes I see have the 'proper' diamond racing ones.

Inverse tyres in Bayswater do a 15x8 or 16x8. Get et20. With a 195!

[junyip_69]

yeah called em up just the other day, i reckon 15x8 n 15x9 for rears but i feel like ill need to borrow someones fender roller

[junyip_69]

I feel like from what ive researched, the steels wont fit nice n flush and instead be 4x4 ?

If you're looking at the 15 or 16x8 at et20 it'll be spot on, check Surfpig's old vento if you haven't already.

[leighaus]

sweet thread mate, look forward to seeing what rims you tuck in there!

[junyip_69]

thanks leigh! im dying for a new set of wheels so im eager to see what i can get my hands on btw lanky you still got that fender roller? if you do id be keen to hire it for a day

[junyip_69]

Went down to inverse tyres and had some test fits (15x8 with et 0) rears sat nice although fronts were just half poking out even with me leaving my spacers all in (20 rear and 10 front) so he'll give dynamic wheels a call on monday morning to see if they can get me a set of +20 so that they sit more under the fender!

[drucejnr]

Mate, my RS's will be 15x8 et0 all round. Is the poke good on the front (I want a fair bit haha)?

I won't be able to test fit until the wheels are finished, which should be the 31st of Jan
