A) When did you start posting here again?

B) Where’s the C4 you stole those off of?

Where did you get the little spoiler on the top of your hatch?

Bought it from a friend, but it’s the VWR lip. You can get it from ECS Tuning.

Rotiform CCV. I do have Compomotive turbos (13’s baby!) going on the mk1 in the spring though! Pics later once I split them and start getting them ready.

I had OEM CC wheels before, but not a fan of the OEM GTI wheels.

Nice...those are only 18” they look bigger. That’s the way to do it.

WERK IT

I don’t like them on the MK7. Looks like crap on the newer body

liquid_popcorn > SnapUndersteer, Italian Spiderman 10/24/2015 at 14:35

hahaha yeah, they seem to generate some strong opinions. I like them, but I know they’re kind of a lot for some people

liquid_popcorn > Tom McParland 10/24/2015 at 14:35

Thanks! I definitely didn’t want bigger, haha

Nice!

I used to have a MK5. I just prefer OEM+ mods :)

CC wheels are nice. So are the savannah wheels

Out of curiosity if they are 18s, what size tire are you running? I love how there’s little sidewall

liquid_popcorn > Bobbyzoom 10/24/2015 at 15:54

Damn that’s clean!

liquid_popcorn > JQJ213- Now With An Extra Cylinder! 10/24/2015 at 15:54

OE size, 225/40R18 Michelin Pilot Super Sports. Stock wheels are 18x7.5, so it’s the slightest of stretches.

JQJ213- Now With An Extra Cylinder! > liquid_popcorn 10/24/2015 at 15:57

Huh. Ive Been looking into getting some 18s for my C30 and really want to show very little sidewall. Max I can fit is a 235/40/18 so that might be what I go with.

I have 205/55/17 now so it’ll be nice

SnapUndersteer, Italian Spiderman > liquid_popcorn 10/24/2015 at 16:05

They’re not a lot for me... I love the Ronal Turbo (and the Compomotive/Rotiform version) but it just looks like shit on the newer car.

Oh well, it’s your car

liquid_popcorn > JQJ213- Now With An Extra Cylinder! 10/24/2015 at 17:21

yeah, that’s a bit different. My rabbit runs a 185/55/14, if I’m remembering right. They’re hilarious.

Pics of said C30?

liquid_popcorn > SnapUndersteer, Italian Spiderman 10/24/2015 at 17:22

Fair. I’ll post some pics once I test fit my compomotives on the mk1...might be a bit more to your liking. ;)

Here she is. Just lowered her very little but it handles amazingly.

Need some 18” wheels, a tune, and a little exhaust work and she will be perfect

I Also need to take better pics later this week

Nice! Love the prancing moose sticker, hahaha. I miss my 244DL.

I came looking for this post so don’t be alarmed.

I have question about these wheels. Are they directional on both sides or does one side “spin” backwards?

liquid_popcorn > Luc - The Acadian Oppo 12/11/2015 at 17:14

1

Hah! No worries.

Directional on both sides - considered mounting them so it’d look like they were backwards, but unsurprisingly it looked weird after test fitting.

Sorry, missed this I guess. 225/40R18

Luc - The Acadian Oppo > liquid_popcorn 12/11/2015 at 17:28

Perfect thanks! I’m considering a set of these for my Fusion.

whoa, I want to see that!

Also, if you can afford it/want to, get 3pc. The depth is amazing; I just didn’t have that kind of cash for a daily! It looks aggressive as hell though.

JQJ213- Now With An Extra Cylinder! > liquid_popcorn 12/11/2015 at 17:50

I got some new wheels finally. 235/40/18s. Just barely fit and miss scraping at full lock by the smallest amount.

Luc - The Acadian Oppo > liquid_popcorn 12/12/2015 at 12:02

the 3pc are nice but I’m definitely only planing to get the cast 1 pc.

liquid_popcorn > Luc - The Acadian Oppo 12/14/2015 at 15:26

yeah, they’re a bit more reasonable, haha
