Those are Work Wheels on the GTI yeah? We need some fitment-pimps off in Seattle. The local cats on here have some fresh rides, and we need more. I miss Socal! Some of these cars are really about to have me breaking off some stacks for some wheels soon...

I'm starting to hate stretch tires. I just shredded my rear tire to pieces after only 2 months of driving. 2 sets of tires in 5 months...FAIL

Falken FK451. I heard negative about Falken all the time but never chose to listen. Now I know.

Daily driving with short moments of spirited driving.

10.5 on a 245/40 tire wih -3.4 camber.


As far as switching up the setup, while I was changing to my spare in the middle of the freeway at 11pm at night, it sounded like a darn good idea. But now, not so much. I will keep the setup and b*tch some more when i have to buy new tires again in 2 months.

245/40 is closest to OEM spec. I dont like rubber band sidewall.
