    They fill up the guards a fair bit more, and the speedo actually reads correctly now [emoji1787] (used to read 100km/h but GPS said 96).

      Was looking for an Golf R exhaust, but an Audi S3 one came up from an almost new car, and apparently it is identical in specs (I think the tips are actually a little longer which helps). All the golf exhaust were a bit rubbish looking, so I opted for the Newby one as it was schminck condition.

        Do you have a stage 2 downpipe etc? Acoustically is it quiet like stock? I want quad tail pipes and have the stage 2 upgrades but want to retain a quiet car

          I don’t have an aftermarket DP, stock as. That’s why I opted in to delete res also, for a little noise when under acceleration.

          Have a look at post 453 on the exhaust forum, little vid there.

                      Not on a SQ5 you won't.
                      If on a Tiguan you might want to think of 255/35 R21.
                      If you are looking for them on a B7 Passat, well that would be an interesting endeavour.

                      • I was thinking to put the combo 255/40 R21 on my Mk2 Tiguan. Might give it a miss as I don't want a wider tyre or lower profile..

                        Had enough of the 30 and 35 profiles on my previous cars.

                          @GreyGoose_X what wheel and tyre set-up have you fitted?

                          Did you do any suspension work?

                          Your finished product looks nice, sort of the direction I want to take.

                          • Hey Guys, looking for some advice here. I've got a 2023 Tiguan R Line, looking to put some wheels on it that I have kicking around the shop. They are 22x10.5 et 30. As best as I can figure I will beed a 265/30/22 tire on there, can anyone confirm that? Will the wheels even fit at that size? Would a set of H&R sport springs get it low enough to look decent or do I need to toss in a set of coilovers to get the right down where it needs to be?

                            • wow a 22in on a Tig will look awesome
                              check Rim & Tire Size Calculator. Custom Offsets - Wheel-Size.com
                              this will help with tyre and wheel sizing and offsets - I'd say with a 10.5 R22 you'll need a 285 - 305 min tyre probably closer to a 305 will be a rough ride tyres will cost a bomb but will look sweet.

                              i recently lowered mine on coils and upgraded to the OEM current R-line 20in (255x45 R20 on 8.5 38 ) when lowered i do get some scrubbing so looking to lower my profile down to 40 otherwise i could save money and raise the car.
