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,

    Just saw the H&R thread again, the lowered springs realy set off the wheels now, looking good. I did a photoshop lowering of your car a while back but too lazy to post the image, actually I have a few modded photos sitting on the hard-drive with a realistic height drop. I think I have hijacked the thred myself a bit

          Oh man, i am so hanging out for the 16 vs 20 pictures and the final pictures of the 20's on.

          Can just imagine what it would look like lowered, rolling on those lower offset wheels.

              Give me half an hour to upload the pics put the wheels on at 10am and they look GOOOOOOOOOOOD, but then again I am biased. Took the car for a test drive and the wheel alignment was still spot on and tracked well so the 35 offset and 255/35/20 tyre size works as it should and no clearance issues what so ever. Ride quality, smooooooth, are there 20"s' on the Car can't tell one bit, less soggy than the 16"s but in no way harsh, ate up wide speed hump like it was butter.

                    x2, could be the first Aussie Tig with 20"s I think?

                      It will be thte first one i have seen.

                      There was one in the US but they used some dodgy looking wheels so i want to see what a nice set of wheels looks like.

                        Here is the side on view comparing the 16 with the 20, I put the 20 on the front to exagerate the difference as the bulk pf the back makes the back wheel always appera smaller

                          Hahaha great shot.
                          The 20 looks massive in comparrison to the 16.
                          Great work.


                          Might need to get a set of lamborghini brakes now to fill out the gap behind the spokes.

                            And another one with all the wheels on, just need the springs in to close up the gap, acording to the tracking info they just cleared customs in Aus so 3 or so days.

                                Looks great with the 20's on but it defnitely needs a drop.
                                Congratulation on an awesome wheel choice and fitment.

                                Can't wait to see the after springs photos as well.
