I'm done here OP. Sorry for messing up your thread. Very nice car "though" for the little girls on this forum.

That's also planned. Either a wolfsburg front, or a color matched jetta front.

Replaced my cam follower today, went better than expected. Little wear on the old one, not a lot, but the black coating was worn off so I replaced it.

Wheels will hopefully be at the powder coaters this time next week, have to bore out the lug holes, then make sure I order the right size lug bolts. :thumbup::thumbup:
Nah actually have these done before Eurotreffen and the V2lab meet.

those wheels are going to be a tough fit.

The front should be ok with a decent fender roll/pull, but the rears are going to be tough.

That wide and low offset static on 18" wheels will smash up your quarters on a regular basis.

White on red is sick though.

try and see if you can change the offset to something more friendly.. man you really have no clue how aggressive a + 25 9.5 rear is! and im not trying to put you down or anything just trying to help out:thumbsup:

fyi I made some calls today and found a local machine shop that said they could do this. Not to expensive either :thumbsup:

That's 18x9.5 +22 with a 225/40, full camber and a pull. It's do able, but it's gonna poke. Depending on the cost, I may get them milled down to a 30 or 35. and the fronts down to a 40 ish. Problem is, I don't know what size bolts I'll need, So I have to test fit before I go cutting stuff off.

And doing some research, it looks like it isn't safe to shave more than 3 to 5 millimeters, so I guess i'll just do a good sized phonebook pull and hope for the best haha.
