    Wheel Fitment & Question Thread

    I searched this thread and couldn't find a conclusive answer. Has anyone used 17x9 +24 Cobra R wheels on the MK3 w/o issue? Obviously depending on the tire, ideally I would like all 4 tires to be the same size.

    What A/F gauge do you have? You would benefit from a SAFC and an AFPR.

    Spec vs ACT

    I have a Spec stage 2 and never had a problem with it. Not sure if the controversy is still around, but when I was researching clutches some people said that Spec uses an OEM PP painted blue. The pedal feel with my stage 2 is no different than stock.

    Tires

    If you plan on lowering your car I would get tires at the same time as the shocks and springs. You can install the suspension but make sure that you have the tires mounted and balanced by a reputable shop. Once everything is installed have a 4 wheel alignment done. I have Eibachs and Bilsteins...
