Was a great experience to get the car featured after reading car mags since about the age of 14!  New owner of the car posted up some draggy times he did.  I knew the car was quick but didn't know it was this quick!

 

Agreed on the BBS CH-R/CH & OZ route.  Definitely a popular choice but not my cup of tea.

I'm trying to find ones without diamond cutting on them. But it's difficult to find wheels that looks as good as the rotars on the 8p.


Seb.

The diamond cut on the black rotas break it up & works very well with White or Gray RS with the optic black pack mate.

Or even a Black one.๐Ÿ˜Š

I'm with you mate they do suit the 8P & they don't make it stand out which I like.๐Ÿ˜Š

Also as there an open design there easy to keep clean & give good ventilation to the brakes. ๐Ÿ˜

These were done two years ago now & still look as good as the first day they were powder coated.

I'll speak up for Jay as i had mine done at the same place as his, Lepsons in Gillingham. :up_it:

 

Full refurb inc repair,diamond cut,remove/refit tyres & balancing ยฃ535. :D

 

I dropped them off & picked them back up myself,they do a pick up/drop back off at extra cost.
