After what feels like weeks and weeks and weeks of waiting I finally put my summer wheels on today!

Looks nice and clean mate, think tinting the side repeaters would add to the look and a debadge aswell with black Vw badges. Be well nice....

The photo's look a bit rubbish to be fair, the wheels are soooo much shinier in reality!
Well it looks as if we're going to get at least a week of really hot weather!

Lookin sweet with summer RX2's on Tom

As Craig says get the side repeaters tinted too if you got any left from doing your rears

Yeah I got some left mate. How easy are they to get off?

I would just do it on the car mate i think you may have to drop the inner wings and do it that way. Not 100% sure.

They push to one side and they'll pop out mate there not that difficult just hardest part is figuring out which way they go lol

Got one out yesterday

I've been trying to figure out for a while now why my rear wheels seem to be picking up more brake dust (more than twice as much) as my front wheels and tonight I think I've found out why.
When I'm driving slowly I can hear a metallic rubbing noise which sounds like the brake pads rubbing on the disks. I'm guessing this is what is causing the excess dust.
Has anyone ever experienced this problem before or know what the issue could be and how I'd go about getting it sorted?

Had a little clean today and thought I'd add in a bit of red for a small change.
