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,

    Well, artisans would prefer to keep it real than be sellouts.

    Makes them more valuable to those that have/want them.

        VW: it aint just a car, its a way of life
        There are few things more satisfying in life than finding a solution to a problem and implementing it

          I had a set of Simmons FRs that I sold with tyres for $400 when I was 18 because I was poor.

            Simmons Wheels
            Our long association with Simmons Wheels has temperarily ended with the announcement of the closure of the Simmons manufacturing plant in June this year. We are in negotiations with Tony re purchase of the plant, equipment, casting moulds etc. with the view to <!--{12527491883972}- resurrecting the famous Simmons FR, Simmons OM and Simmons B45 3 piece wheels.
            We will continue with repairs and maintenence etc as there is still a supply of parts available.
            Any progress re supply of Simmons wheels will be announced when finalised.

                I hope someone actually buys it all off the old fella, cos they're some really nice wheels...it'd be a real shame for them just to stop.

                    I guess they're now that much more revered

                    I want to see them make the B45s again if MagWheelCentre successfully takes over.
