That car is sooo ugly !! Bet its amazing to drive though !!
-
I remember seeing them when they were launched and loved that angry front end they have. I've always loved VW's, started to buy Volksworld when i was 17 and wanted a Karman Ghia, Fastback or Split Screen camper back then, until i went in my sisters boyfriends' Mk 2 16v, i loved that car !! Had 4 Mk 2's then i was looking out for another with low mileage when my G60 turned up with 42K. My friend has one which made me realise that they were that bit more refined than the Mk 2 also.

LMAO !!!

215/35 should be OK, not 215/40 tho !! Kev seems to know what there is to know about these, sure he'll help here !!
-
205/35/17 will be a harsher ride with those thin sidewalls and alot more expensive i think ??
-
I think when you put 17's on the car sits too high unless you lower it a bit (as in Kevs sig pic) 205/40/17 is actually 20mm bigger in diameter than the stock 195/50/15's you should have. The speedo tells you you're going a little faster than you are which isn't a bad thing IMO Jim, your G60 looks amazing in that pic !! Have a look here to compare sizes etc.......... http://www.miata.net/garage/tirecalcold.html

I've got the Konigsports and can rate them aswell, plenty of VR6ers have them here and say they're good also.

Amazing car !! Those rims really suited the Corrado i thought, and not many do. Loved how the colours of the interior and body looked together - top job mate, one of the nicest ever. -
I got 9 of the little $hitters on mine in the space of 2 weeks in my 16V Golf

BBS RS' all the way ..... OR RH ZW1's

Done mine with red a while back, build up with thin layers then T-Cut them, came up well. Problem is the indicators flash red unless you mask up the 3mm dotted strips and tint your bulbs green !! There is a thread somewhere i'll find it............... http://the-corrado.net/.archive/forum/viewtopic. ... ear+lights I done exactly what OSV's post and pic say's.

This information has now been compiled in a Wiki article, so I've locked and un-stickied this thread. =============== Thought this was quite useful and maybe worth a Sticky.... http://marksink.com/tire_wheel_offset/offset.html

If you've got a reference number for the parcel (PSD should have it if it was sent recorded delivery) you can track it online with parcelforce or whoever sent it. I know what its like - had to wait over 2 weeks for my wheels to arrive from Germany, was a worry !!!

Mmmm cheers mr Haywire !! BTW i remember that Golf in your avatar, sure it was parked outside my house once !!

Is it just because the battery is dead that the alarm has gone mad ??

OK cheers mate. Found a Rallye one so could be worth looking at. I spoke to keystarG60 who is also interested in the pipework :wink: -

carpoid replied to Shilakadaddy's topic in Engine Bay
What do you need to do to get the Rallye one in ?? Have you done this Darren ?? -
Just went to pick my C up after 2 weeks of it sitting in someones garage, went to start it, battery sounded dead, turned ignition off, alarm went beserk, couldn't stop it, dis-connected battery. Although the alarm isn't armed every time i try and start it it goes off ?? Its a (original i think) Foxguard. Should i have a master key ?? Anyone know WTF it might be ?? !!
