Vwthunders build thread (finally)

Actually I was just going to park it on a 45degree angle on the rd

So Bora wheels are gone, so needed a new set of track wheels, even tho i dont do track days often.

Anyway bougt these from the UK

Team Dynamics Pro Race 1.2 in Gloss Black 17X8. They are to suit a wrx so a 48 offset, nothing spacers wont fix, also they are away at the moment having the center bore enlarged

Decided on some Hankook RS3's as i gt them at a good pice

They are a 215/45 so a little wider then the 205's i had, hope they will increase grip

8.1kg not as light as RPF1's but everyone has those

Those wheels should look the goods on the car Troy.

[Jarred]

pretty good though. About the same weight as the OZ superleggeras (or ultras, I can't remember which ones I have )

Sweet Troy, can't wait to see your track times plummet

Hopefully, hopefully i will have more confidence with the car having the extra rubber.

Also going to get some Motul RBF600 fluid for the brakes and do a flush. Been reading up on fluids and it seems a good choice for the price !! Not paying $140 for the Castrol SRF

Nice looking combo, I'm not much for black rims, but if anyone is going to keep them clean enough to pull it off, its you.

Should sit nicely infront of the bigger rotors, would look laughable with the stock ones (with everything else looking juuuust right).
