  2. Off Topic!: Will i need to get those for my A's dave?
  3. Woah! wasnt expecting that! Well done for living dude! :shock:
  4. 205/40/17's.. i found out last week!

    Worth it?

    i guess you get what you pay for, but they seem okay!
  10. I thought it said 15" Barons!!!!!! :lol:
  11. thanks for replies, i shall try the above! selbekk, ive got one of those too, fingers crossed i dont get that problem!
  12. Anyone have any ideas? when i break, my passangers side indicators come on [solid, not flashing]. Only noticed as the interior indicator was coming on! Has this happened to anyone before? i've tried the search, but couldnt see anything. Cheers, Baz.
  13. my mate sold his mk2 valver with about 310k on it, and from what i last heard its still going!
  14. mine have done 115K, and look new... and my arse is huge! [insert google pic here] just dont image search for 'huge arse' :pukeright:
  15. I have the exact opposite dilemma, I am doing 300+ miles per week and could be saving myself a fortune by getting a diesel, but just cant get rid of the G. I enjoy my 35 mile drive to work, but know i'd hate it in a diesel. Driving the mrs mk2 GTi is bad enough!
  16. shouldnt be a problem with that offset. £100 sounds pretty cheap. Only thing i would say is A's look quite strange in 15" IMO, Azev A's are much better suited.
  17. tell them, or at least say that you are thinking of doing it and would that affect the premium. What are they gonna charge you?! £25 max, if anything. What if you stuffed it into the back of a £20k car and they decided not to payout? Its never worth the risk.
  18. and i shouldnt have a problem with the wheel width?
  19. cool, 40's it is then. Ive had F1's before on my old polo in a 195/45/15, and found them scary when cornering. that may have been more to do with the car though?
  20. Hi guys, sure the answers here some where, but checked the wiki and search, but no joy so far.. I have a set of 17x7.5" wheels that need tyres, and thought they would need to be 205/50/17.. however, as ive been looking around, it would appear that the tyre is too deep. Can anyone guide me in the right direction? I want a slightly stretched look, and would rather not roll the arches for now if i can get away with it! One thing im slightly concerned about, is a link from the wiki gave me this information... Your new wheel will have the following chracteristics: The clearance from stut housing to the inside of the wheel will be THE SAME The outside edge of the wheel will EXTEND an extra 26mm Your new wheel will have the following chracteristics: The clearance from stut housing to the inside of the wheel will be THE SAME The outside edge of the wheel will EXTEND an extra 26mm Do i have to worry about the extra width? Also, as im probably in trouble for posting without finding something from the search, does anybody recommend a particular tyre/supplier for what ill be after? Thanks in advance, Baz.
  21. matthewb1985, blimey! i get stressed at having to use an inhaler [whilst smoking, walking up hill] Good luck with the op, and horray for still being able to drive! look forward to seeing you at stealth.
