Tyre size on 17x8j wheels

Recently purchased some new wheels which are 17x8j et35 and was hoping to just swap over my current tyres which are 215/40. I don't want alot of stretch so how would these look? Would ideally like to go 225/40 tyres but would they rub? Plus then I'd need 4 new tyres. What size tyres are other people...

Re: Best brake upgrade from 256mm without changing hub carriers

Not sure what they are worth tbh only done 18k and i can chuck in a set of brand new brembo pads. Send me a message dude. Won't allow me to compose one yet I think that if you do not have enough postings yet to send a PM, that other people can not send you a PM, I could be wrong though. Also, have ...

I've got a complete 312mm setup off my 6c if you are looking for that

Re: Best brake upgrade from 256mm without changing hub carriers

I'd still think that even an early GTI must have at least 288mm front discs, so the hub carrier with the detachable calliper bracket is already on that car - so changing to bigger diameter discs would be easier. Edit:- I'll stick my neck out and say, look at the front calliper - has it got FS111 mo...

Read multiple things. Demon Tweeks recommends 288mm but euros recommend 256mm. I've got a 10 plate so one of the earlier ones

Best brake upgrade from 256mm without changing hub carriers

So Had my Polo GTI 6R for a while now with the stock 256mm brakes. New wheels and coilovers are sat waiting to go on but I'd like to do brakes at the same. Been reading about Audi TT 312mm brakes but I'd need to change hub carriers from what I've read. Are there any other options which only require ...
