    The "Rimz" Thread ** Look here before requesting pics of specific wheels**

    Had a5 alloys on my old 8p,only needed to change the bore as its a 66.6 instead of the 57.1. you will need spigot rings off ebay for under a tenner.Make sure that your tyre profile will allow the wheel to turn without rubbing. had to raise my coil overs slightly to accommodate it.

    Ran out of diesel in my 2005 2.0 tdi....will it self prime?

    No cranking the engine will make the pump and filter self prime.Against all odds ,if it ever fails to start,take off one end of any turbo pipe going into the manifold and squirt WD40 or engine start and it sure starts it all the time.

    Has anyone ever tried this before?

    Front end conversions are getting cheaper.Its too much effort for poor results.I would go with buying the front end separate.I will work out cheaper.I have done a few of these conversions.

    Any issues with AP Coilovers?!

    Quite agree with smurfworth. Sounds like your tyres are the culprit. the camber and tyre width can change the way your car handles. I have APs on my A3 8P and run KW Inox 1 on my Bora. TBH I prefer the AP ride as compared to the KWs even though they are well rated. I find them stiffer than the APs.
