  1. Hey all, I know I've posted about this before but I've ran out of ideas Arch enemy aren't based within 170 miles of me, and I'm really fussy with people I'd let do it from past experience when it was botched and caused massive issues with the car leaking water. Does anybody know of around the south wales/west area that does it? the rubbing is doing my head in and I need it done for piece of mind! cheers.

    I've had a few inches (south wales) nothnig major though! the GTi was okay in it! although It was a little slushy on a big roundabout near me and it almost went sidewards! the irony was an M3 was beeping and flashing me! I really wished he'd lost control and not hit/hurt anything just so I could do it back! lol

    My lupo

    Sorry to hear this lup was looking nice too! as long as you're all right, like ben said it's just metal easily replaced, your life isn't on the other hand.
  4. True gent! thank you mate
  5. How are they made? just ground out?! reason I ask my old man is an engineer he could probably make some for me?! you have any more info on these bud? be nice to know, I can get some whipped up then! or any info if they can't be made so easily on a lathe!
  6. Yes and yes, I've spoken to Arch enemy about getting them sorted, I get no rubbing on the back, just the front with full lock etc. So would 10 be more sustainable than 25's I'm guessing? lol ET25

  8. So if I got myself some 20mm spacers for the rear they'd pull out a little further than the front?! sounds good! I need to wind the back down a little anyway! where can I get them from!? sorry I sound daft I'm not good with this kinda stuff and there's plenty of people who've done it all more than once!
  9. I just want the rears pulled out enough to sit the same as the front which clear the arches, arranging to get my arched rolled also, next question where can I get them from?
  10. All I was looking for! thank you both, the wheels are the same width, so spacers are the answer? what's a good size to get?! and will I need longer bolts?
  11. No I know what I mean is, unless the front has spacers the front wheels have a lower offset as they stick out of the arches while the rears are flush, I just wanted a quick fix as such or suggestion to pull the rears out a bit to match as it's not to my taste!
  12. Okay I've bought my lovely GTi and I'm over the moon with it but I've noticed the offset is higher on the rear than the front?! I have TH Mono's and I was wondering what reasoning there would be for this?! and could I get spacers etc to bring the backs out lower the ET? any help/advice appreciated.
  13. Lovely lovely bikes mate! loving that KTM, I had a KXF 450 08 lovely lovely bike I want another one
  14. Hey mate, the 7j on the front should be okay but 9's on the back!? that's doubtful without some arch work, and that's a pretty big stretch too, I'd say they may fit but not as standard, I have 8J on the back of my GTi with a ET25 I think and they scrub on 195/45/15's I believe.
