Awesome !!

However, questions, me being a nosey barsteward:

How much?

What tyres?

What do you use to get your car 'so black'?

The wheels aren't new (although you'd never know!) I bought them from a user on another forum. Complete with all BBS valve caps and centre caps wearing 235/35/19 Dunlop Sport Maxx tyres I gave £1k which is a good price IMO.

As for the car.. it was washed using Megs NXT car wash and dried using a Megs Water Magnet and Megs NXT Speed Detailer. I haven't waxed the car since I got it in December and it will be receiving a fiull detail soon whether it's done by me or treated to the Baker21 full treatment :thumbup:

They look really good, what tyre size are those running?

The rears really could do with being a bit further out, they just seem to sit a little to far into the arch. I dont think that lowering will make that look better, it may actually make it look even more noticable.

Mentioned in the other reply I just wrote but they're 235/35/19. Yes I agree that they do look a little too far inboard.. I might have to stick a small spacer on but I HATE spacers with a passion! Shouldn't be too bad as it'll only be on the back and only a small spacer :thumbup:

Ok Ben, so i've been thinking about it... So you lower the car & the wheels now fit the arches... Then you'll need something to fill the wheels ;) !

I'm one step ahead of you Uncle B, the braking situation is work in progress :D:thumbup:

Where does it end? :rolleyes:

Very nice wheels Shark_90. Though if I went for after-markets, I'd choose OZ Ultraleggeras to minimise unsprung weight and maximise ride comfort.

Thanks.. yes the Ultraleggeras are around 2kg per corner lighter however these are lighter (by feel, I haven't weighed them) than the original 18s so it's a step in the right direction :thumbup:

Yes, it worked out cheaper, but it was one of those things, that it took someone on here to point out what I'd missed! As a general observation, I put in loads of hours of leg work to get the right prices especially as I wanted the Audi caliper. If you had to put all that in at a cost, then... Let's just say that the JKM kit is about as fair a price as it gets, unless you are really willing to work at it (or you don't want blue or red!)!

Any more info on the S3 caliper mod? Part numbers? Prices? Is it all bolt on?
