My Solar Orange S3

I'm beginning to like solar orange more and more I have to say.

Saw a solar orange TTRS in Stafford services on the M6 north bound on Thurs am - looked amazing - and the sound of it was something else.

Plenty of TT-Ss in Solar too. I have never seen a single orange S3 on the roads but I must have seen about 5 TT-Ss. Looks stunning.
 
I wouldn't mind bagyard kit for mine, I just have to live on the streets and not eat for 1 year, and I'll be able to buy it :laugh:


Did you see the Plush Automotive set up at Edition. That is pretty cool.

If i had not got RS's i would have got RS861's:yum:
 
I've got RS861s? Luke Massy's mk5 with alphards? or another one? You at players on sunday?

My point exactly, the 861 are a great looking wheel:sly:

Not sure wot the lad is called, but that sounds like the car im referring to.

Here is a pic

Players is a bit too far for me in one day, it was bad enough picking up the wheels from Essex!

I got ya, you like my wheels. I know man, his car is awesome, Luke Massy he name is, his car is IMMENSE.
 
The traction must be nuts with the quattro and those wide wheels !
 
It wont look like that without coilovers or air!

The front offset is just not right on the LM's in 19", your gonna have way too much poke even with stretched tyres. The only size LM's that relly fit the S3 are 20".

You could get away with the rears, just!

Its gonna be difficult to work out the tyres you need to get the rolling radius for the front and rears to be as close as possible to prevent damage to the Haldex.

Shame the LM's are two piece as you could have changed the dish to make them both 8.5" and removed the issue with the Haldex.

It does look good though in the photoshop:yes:
 
Only have one on works computer, which is one that Saf sent.
But just realised i have no idea how to upload images , better do my homework, if i send it to someone could they put it up?

Just added the pic to my profile :)

Look Great Yeah but definatley would NOT recommend them if your car is lowered!! Turning the slightest corner wheels were rubbing the arches, had to get rid of the H&Rs and now back to original springs, car much better to drive and most people say car actually looks better now.
 
Although we all love an orange S3, we wouldnt mind some pics of you too :hubbahubba:
 
Ha ha !! Its fine, wouldnt expect anything less from guys on a car forum :p
