Hey guys I just signed up and thought I would post up some pics of my ride, shez a 05' TDi! I'v had it for a year now and done a couple of mods, pedders springs to lower it 35mm all round and some 18"x8" VW genuine wheels. Tell me what u guys think

Cheers,

Milosh

Very nice mate and welcome to the forums, nice to see yet another diesel owner gracing the space Yours would be a Comfortline or Trendline ? I really like the wheels on it too they go well with the colour, United Grey isn't it ? I trust you're happy with it !!

Cheers
Russ

Those wheels are sexy!


Nice car MiiLos.
Would you happen to know off hand the name of those rims?


Did you have any issues with the size of the rim under the guards?
No scraping or anything?

wow Milosh, those rims look great! nice one what are they originally off?

[ChrisR32]

That TDI looks awesome mate, very nicely done. Rims suit the car so much! They are off the Eos or Jetta aren't they?

Thanx guys im glad u like it
As for the name of the wheels im not too sure, I bought them at Bob Jane. The guy that sold it to me told me they were genuine VW's and showed me the certificate and the Germany branding on the wheel itself. He did also say that the wheels were originally for the Passat or Jetta.. i cant remember. Iv found a link of some replicas for uz tho When i got them put on i still had the stok springs hence there was no issues watsoever but when i lowered it i had a minor scrape whilst turning right with 3 people in the car haha! hasent happened since and im just thinkin of gettin 215 tyres when i need to change them instead of the 225's on it now. My mate has the same ride as me, same size wheels and same springs and he's never scraped! I was thinkin of puttin on some 19's.. what you guys think of that?? haha

Taken yesterday afternoon, my 3rd time down the ZigZag in Gooseberry Hill.

Went down for the very first time on Friday evening, did another run straight after and then decided to go back yesterday for another run

Love the TDI torque up the hills to get there, DSG decided to go down into 2nd at the 60km/h speed limit at some points. Some of the driveways in the area make you wonder what sort of cars the people living there have, I swear you'd need a Touareg R50 to get up some of them. Left it in S going back down the hill.

I really want Euro plates...
