looks lovely mate, good job! are you going 9.5 all round? did you not fancy waiting for the 0.05s??

hi mate.. same car, same colour, pretty same optional (i got manual and not coated seats), and same coils

will run 9,5 et40 allaround?

Le Clue · Post by **Le Clue** » Mon Aug 20, 2012 6:39 pm

Yes 9.5J ET40 all round..would have loved the staggered look but the front arches need to be filled.

I think the 0.05's will look just as good but I'm not sure when the 19" is coming out?

They keep pushing the date back, 0.01s will look great. When are you getting them?

Hopefully next month! Would a 8.5J ET35 fill out the arches in front??

im not sure mate, I havnt changed my wheels yet, I had a few questions about changing wheels and i asked polo classic, he was very helpful.

I changed my mind...

19" 8.5J ET35 in the front

19" 9.5J ET40 at the rear

Staggered look

I love those wheels (I have them, too) and ride height is just spot on. At least on my opinion.

I only hope that I could lower my car more.

Dare I ask how much you managed to get the Savannah's for? I was looking at getting these before I went for the Roti's and still think about swapping... :\

Awesome mate, well done

what tyres did you go for? How you finding the blisteins?

Le Clue · Post by **Le Clue** » Wed Nov 28, 2012 8:29 am

Thank you very much guys! I wish I could go lower in front but I'm on my lowest and even if I could I would probably damage my subframe around my house as there is a 1mm clearance currently.

The Bilstein's ride amazing..it has a very solid German feel to it, not uncomfortable at all..and corners proper!

The 19's ride better than the 18's I had on..these Toyo's are pretty damn good..much better than the Pirelli P7's I had on.

I picked the wheels up for R6 000 (£430) a bargain if you ask me seeing that they are brand new and OEM!

You got a good deal there mate. The tyres 235/35?

Yup, 235/35/19

That's an amazing deal! I think they'd charge us that amount for each wheel here in the UK

Mikko · Post by **Mikko** » Wed Nov 28, 2012 8:49 pm

Savannahs are 580 euros each in Finland and I thought that I got a great deal when I paid 1200 euros for a set of four wheels. But that's a real bargain.
