    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.

    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

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...

    He buys his M1's from thecmp.org. He is a Marine so he can buy using his military ID, while civilians need to participate in marksmanship competitions and firearm clubs. They are very reputable and the prices depend on the manufacturer, age and condition.
