Ermagawd, I can't get enough of the 710s!

The 3SDM stuff looks good and their marketing is solid - nice clean website to check the range out.

As for the police I guess there is always the argument they focus on the Falcodore/Ricer crowd more than the Euros, although as the Euros popularity continues to escalate that theory is having less application. I suppose it's like a tune - push the envelope and you run the warranty risks, same as in wheels or suspension if you're overstepping the road rules. Weigh up clearing the defect and penalties v the look.

Weren't you going to look at multiple wheel sets so you could track etc anyway? That might save some heartache.

Or just grow older like me and play it conservative and very legal lol, and live vicariously through this thread.

I've got ultralegerras on atm and it's dropped with VWR. Those has been treating me well for the time being, but lately the bad boy inside me has been trying to break out.

Where's the bloody pics?

So what look you thinking of for a change/show? Which 3SDMs?

Tried and tested.

Probably still leaning towards the newer 810s for the Mk7 though.

Of course what you really need, and here comes a gratuitous plug for anyone who wants to buy my OZs, is the Leggera HLTs like on this R - in 18s to save weight and get more comfortable and higher performance rubber:





PM if keen.

I'll post a picture on Monday when I'm back in the country. :p I'm thinking of the 0.05, going for the classic look.

Ok seems a legit excuse.

0.05s. Can you please please please do these? I'm guessing x 8.5 ET42 to play it safe (ish) or thinking about something more extreme?

Pity the AUD has continued it's drop, although the 3SDMs are priced sharply. All you need is the geniuses at the RBA to forget their jobs as usual and whack on their rose tinted glasses inside their ivory tower and start increasing rates to impact things they can't impact and the AUD will shoot back up.

One more look at the red car for inspiration:

Yeah that's exactly what I'll be going for. 19x8.5 ET42 I don't want it too aggressive as I've got enough stories of yellow stickering in my life. (Not my car) I've also been in contact with someone over East who can supply me a KW DDC for 1.8-2k shipped. That's been over my head for quite some time, well... Before the AUD dropped anyway, need to ask again about it.

That's super sharp for the KWs. Avdo was certainly happy with them on his now departed R..

Another look at Momo Revenge, this time in 18 inch (we've covered 17s and 19s before) on a car also fitted with the (optional) Euro rear valance with twin exhausts:



Given VW offer this part I guess they offer an exhaust to fit? Per another thread under Mk7 this part is specifically available for the 7.

Ok, these are the rims the MK7 Golf R should have come with (at least with the Pure White)

[andrew7]

And a second, much better street presence, very happy...

Good look Andrew. Can we have some details, name size.

Good to see doing the shopping at Woolworths Golden Square.
