It happens, Neuspeed offers a discount replacement program.
Now you’ve got a full size spare, lemons/lemonade
Also found a lot of jizz on the passenger side of my radiator. Time for a new one?

Yeah I’ll obviously do something about that wheel but might not touch the others now. The fixes to the paint were marginal at best to begin with and I know are just going to happen again with normal wear.Been there. Sucks.
I guess this makes your decision about getting your wheels refinished easier..
Yep. Doing the cheap repair is an option.The good news is Neuspeed sells touch up.
I did the same thing to one of my sets of wheels. Made me cry.
Sucks Matt, but This. Makes that decision for you
I wish I could take advantage of this, but I’m not the original purchaser of the wheels.It happens, Neuspeed offers a discount replacement program.

This is an option too… buy a new wheel and run it full time and have this one repaired and run as full-sized spare with one of the continentals I have with decent tread left.Yeeeeeah been putting off a full size spare for too long myself
15 track days on stock pads?? Lol how did that go?Rear brake pads and tire rotation today. Wanted to replace rotors but the set screw was totally seized on both sides and I would’ve stripped it with hand tools. Didn’t have an impact driver. Luckily the rotors are still at 9.8mm and looked fine.
Stock brake pads after 52k mile and 15 track days…just about at the wear bar lol.

Dust boots on the shocks had basically disintegrated so cut the majority of them our. Will need to replace soon. View attachment 233104
Is the black wheel arch stock? Makes it look like it has a big gap.Tiggy- Dialed up the front coils to level it out better (rears need the current height to account for rear passengers)
In preparations to Monday's alignment appt.
Going to ask him to dial in as much front camber as possible and like -2 in the rear so I can work on the spacers stance finally

Yes all tiguans and all trims except the euro true r have textured black arches. It’s almost 4” drop right nowIs the black wheel arch stock? Makes it look like it has a big gap.
Lol to clarify 15 days on stock REAR pads, I’ve gone through 2 sets of Ferodo DS2500 on the front. But yea, incredible how little the rear pads are used. The rear has been getting fairly loose under hard braking so I think a more aggressive pad should help a bit.15 track days on stock pads?? Lol how did that go?
