You may also look at some mild lowering to complete the look but fit up the wheels/tyres first. Lowering is always a personal thing and depends on how many steep driveways you have to navigate.

Hey, I have Rotiform SPF in 8.5 wide +45 offset non lowered and fit perfectly.

Oh and standard Golf R tyre size will fit, no worries as well.

Hi all,

Just started to look for some wheels options and what would be the max legal fitment for them?

Cheers.

OK,

another wagon Wednesday and I'm finally had some time to post here a picture of my ongoing project, still a lot to do though…

From where I started from the day that I bought…

Huge improvement so far - well done. Next up, get rid of the yellow number plate, tint the windows 20% and look into some GTI/R style headlights. The headlights make a big different to how the car looks. Then perhaps a GTI/R front bumper to finish it off.

I already swapped the headlights (not the original R ones, wasn’t able to find a set in a good shape and price, but still looking though) the original ones were in a very bad shape and I didn’t want to keep them (the picture didn't show much).

The plate colour I still not sure what I want, I’ll definitely replace the yellow one. I may get the normal white on black ones to match with the other black accents on the car.

The bumper replacement is in my plans but I want to get some stuff in the interior done first.

Hi Guys,

My car got written off a few weeks ago. Got rear ended by someone that was on their phone

Decided to go for a second hand mk7 2015 GTI, what price point should I be looking at?

I've had a look at 2 of them and can provide links.

They look nice mate. I think the stock issue with the PS4S is the fact that Michelin has just released the PS5 recently. You might want to consider another brand tyre at a similar quality/performance level (Continental Sport Contact 6, Goodyear Eagle F1 Supersport, Bridgestone Potenza Sport etc) if you want to get the wheels fitted up soon.
