What did you do to your mk7 today?

[CaptainRatty]

What size 4s did you get?

235/40/18 for an 18x8.5 wheel.

 

[manu97]

SM10 is my vote

Late to share but beat the car senseless at VIR for another 3 day weekend. Landed a new personal best with lots of room to still improve (I completely blew T1).

Put the 4s on bronze 18 x 9 SM10's and AS tires on the RSE10's.

Did you swap out the LCA bushings after they split or full send it?

What else should I consider?

Have you looked into Konigs? I like their Hexaforms but if you want more spokes they have the Ampliforms too.

I'm on Rotiform LAS-R's that I really like but they only come in Silver or Black.

235 on a 9” wheel will be too stretched for my liking and I really wanna run the summer wheels on the RSE 10’s.

LasR ?

No way, 235 or 245 on a 9 is not stretched.

Tell me you're never going to clean your wheels without telling me you're never going to clean your wheels ?

I don't clean mine anyway. They're bronze, not gunmetal. I promise

Trust me, they get cleaned. It is not fun.

Dropped the subframe 3 days before VIR to change them out. Put OEM 8Y S3 bushings in. The voids are smaller than MK7. I THINK same as MK8 R/GTI also.

Those Whiteline bushings are garbage.

I think 235s are ideal from a handling perspective for a 9" rim

Handling wise, I totally agree. Looks wise, I kind of wish I would have gone 245/40.
