Welcome to the new look VWWatercooled

After much work and little sleep there is a new version of the forums running on more powerful and recent hardware as well as an upgraded software platform.

Things are mostly the same, but some things are a little different. We will be learning together, so please post questions (and answers if you've worked things out) in the help thread.

The new forum software is an upgraded version of what came before, it's mostly the same but also a little different. Hopefully easier to use and more stable than before. We are learning together here, so please be patient. If you have questions, please post them here. If you have worked something out and can provide an answer,

  • New wheels :D

    Hey guys,

    I just put my new rims on today, Audi A8's. They're 19x8.5 and ET35.

    Just wanted to see what people think.

      I have to agree mate,rs4's suited it better..a8's have been on thousands of mk4's and a3/a4's.... not really suited to mk5 imho.

          hehe, I was expecting mixed opinions. When you see them in person, or when the car is driving, you won't say that they dont look good (IMO anyways )

          Thanks for the comments guys

                They suit the white car, plus they will really look special once the car is moving

                    looks great... as a fellow owner of a mk5 dumped on h&r coilovers, i know you must be scrubbing insanely much

                    reminds me of this car:

                      I like it I think everyone with RS4 reps needs to take a look and realise the same thing that the rs4 wheels are overdone!

                      Nice work mate love the lowness to

                        I thought RS4s were the ONLY aftermarket wheel that fitted Mk5s
                        You mean there's OTHERS?

                        They look great, Aleksii. And good luck with the scrubbing - it looks fantastic, but must be a bitch to live with!

                          They are the wheels I want for my car!!

                          I reckon they looks heaps better than the RS4's!! As much as i love the RS4's, it's the same as putting BBS RS on a mk1, so damn common it's now boring (dom's is an exception, no sick of that yet ). I reckon it really suits your car especially being lowered and with the black bonnet.

                          Since when have you had the red pinstripes on the bonnet??

                          time to get one of these stickers, you can find them a lot cheaper on e-bay (about $7 to your door) - http://www.empiregfx.com/shop/produc...cat=253&page=2
