Hoping this helps with the wider wheel and tire setup. I found these while searching how to get some negative camber. Still not sure if I like how much the back tires poke on the setup but I’m sure it will grow on me.

What spec did you get your 20s in? I'm looking for some for Christmas and didn't know about offset. Also, link to the rear bbk? We should probably start an mqb Tiggy thread........
10.5” squared setup, wheels are et45s with 20mm front/spacer adapters and 15mm rear spacer/adapters. 285/35/20 tires -2.5 ish camber all around… So aggressive 😂

With rears you can fix that poke with just oem camber adjustments though.

Damn. The other half won't let me touch the suspension. To be safe on stock ride, what would be a good wheel size? 20x9 et 45?

Got some off-season driver mod bits for the house

It's a bit of a compromise to make it easily storable but looking forward to thrashing it in AC and iRacing.

Picked up a set of Superpro alloy control arms and new hardware. These are the basic arms with the pre-installed bushings but no changes to camber or caster. Not expecting big changes but hoping for a little more responsiveness from the steering.

I'm trying to decide if I want to reuse the factory balljoints currently on the car (50k miles, no play) or the ones supplied with the arms (unknown brand). I reached out to Superpro to see who makes them. I'm sure they're fine but I don't want to cheap out on something like a balljoint when good OE replacements are only $30ish. I'm probably overthinking it!
