Re: Bouncy Bouncy

when you say its 'bouncy', is it more like hard bumpy or much like a uncontrolled bounce and takes a while to settle, like when a cars shockers are worn out?

Re: GTi Rear hubs spigot length

thanks man. yes hubcentric for the win.

But im looking at steel ones. extra weight, but I dont want to spend the money on Aluminium's if not absolutely necessary.

what you think?

Delta Mic (steel) 20mm Wheel Spacers

Aluminium spacers are the way forward, but they are mega expensive!

Click the link and look at these ASDA price 'steel' versions.

Do you think Aluminium ones are worth the extra coin?

please vote

Re: 20mm spacers

that does mate, alot. its the stretch that helps im guessing. 195's im worried will cause impact not just rubbing with the arch, if i go over a bump. anyway im looking at these 20mm hub adapters type, they are steel, which concerns me but they are cheap. any comments http://www.lkperformancestyling....
