Secondly could someone post a pic of their induction kit fitted please?? I'm going to buy one, but there doesn't seem to be an airbox on the car, wheres ther airfilter etc???

 

Cheer all

Hi bud, welcome aboard!!

 

I have 18's on, with a 9.5 x 35 x 18 front and 10.5 35 18 rear. Not sure about the pcd etc of the top of my head. Try the Search bar at the top of the page!!!!!!!!!

 

As for the air filter its under the nose panel (where the badge is) takes a 10mm spanner to get off and the airbox is right there. Its a pain in the arse to get out as its rivited in and you cant get to the bolts so needs kicking and drilling but it does come out.

 

I have an HKS mushroom filter on mine and had no probs etc but its a TT so don't know if there's a difference??

Filter box is under the panel between the headlamps.

Mines is the same as this but with blue pipes.

Hi There

 

The offset all depends on the wheel width, but for good hanling I'd say that 8.5J is the widest you'll want the fronts and at that width then a 25 offset will fill the wheel arch nicely. If you go for an 8J then 20 offset would do the job. On the rears a 9.5J would sit well on a 30 offset. A 10J proberbly a 35 offset.

 

Go any smaller offset and you need to have arches rolled and will have front wheels fowling the inner arches.

 

The PDC is 114.3. Your better looking at people like wheel mania who will do you a wheel and tyre deal for your car and work it all out for you.

 

I am selling some wheels shortly

Are you sure you have 9.5J on the front?? If they are your wheels with the deep dishes and looking at the profile you would have to have minimum of 265's on the front. Thats awefully wide for the front and I had rubbing problems when I thought I'd try bigger and put 245's on. + they tramlined all over the place.

 

I'd say they look more like 8.5J with 235's on the front

lol, im a retard :slap:

 

yep they are 235 fronts so must be 8.5 front 9.5 rear as i have 265's on the rear

Bloody nice wheel though. Are they the same as funky Si's :bow:

No, i wish. Similar to (or same) yours aren't they, Ultralight Nurburgrings???

 

Getting the centres white at some point when its lowered
