Get some stickier tyres on it and you'll be laughing your way to 13's.


Haha, yeah they're M/T ET streets, which are DOT approved so they're road legal which is good for Street FWD comp. Car should have about 200kwatw when it's up and running, so I'll take all the traction I can get! I'll be aiming for Nov-Dec at Heathcote, so I'll put up a thread when I'm sorted Haven't been since June '08!

I want to keep my eyes open for some 15 or 16" cheapy wheels (even steel ones) that i can put some sticky rubber on so i can have a bit more side wall to flex

200 atw.... nice bro! Your gearbox is going to hate you LOL Cant wait to see it run, should suprise a few ppl

Youre gonna struggle to fit smaller rims around your 312mm brakes. 16" would be the smallest but you would probably have to be careful with the calliper clearance

Good point, you are right... 16" is the smallest diameter that will clear the callipers on the GTI.
That would be fine though.... now the search
