headed over to Silver dubs place on saturday for some arch rolling.
first issue was the removing the factory sealant/deadener in the rear arches and finding the right tool to get in there.
Once that was sorted we found a issue with the arch roller that it would only take 12mm bolts... some modifications were made and it was mounted.
heat was added and arches were rolled basically flat in no time. no cracked paint either!
thought id throw the audi wheels on, only to find they rubbed on the rear bumper under load and turning.
some quick adjustments were made and the rubbing was reduced to hard cornering, big bumps, and hard acceleration.
next wheels should be 5mm less aggressive in the back so should be enough to clear.
fronts are up next and to space the audi wheels out 5mm more, will end up with
16x7.5et25 205/45
16x7.5et20 205/45
also tried to fit the ABT side skirts but its like the skirts are 5mm too short. need to do some shaving of the body deadening/sealant infront of the rear wheels. looks like whoever was working at VW that day was happy to go a little over the top with the amount applied.
