Thanks for the kind words Sonny, it was good to meet up and compare cars - the paintwork on yours is just amazing!! You just need to sweet talk Jody now and get the Bilsteins and Revo done - then keep it and drive it, you know it's right and better than a mk 2 for £20k less    :)

What 10mm spacers do i need for the rear of my RS3 8p? As im sure i read somewhere the hub lip doesnt allow a 10mm spacer to fit flush against the hub face itself

Do they def fit? As heard that they hit on the hub lip before they sit flush on the actual hub face? As they only made for the front because lip is smaller than rear lip.

Dunno if 10mm will be too much. May go for 8mm if they fit

They won't mate, I'm sure marshy had to remove them from his car. Believe me the 10mm are perfect Tommy

That 10mm? That looks smart actually! 225 tyres on back? Or 235

Tommy all down to personal choice but personally I dont like spacers unless they're like the new ST suspension ones...
Why not just fit 235 MPSS tyres all round. They make the standard 8J look much wider plus you get all the added benefits of grip etc?
