    S3 Wheel fitment: 19x8.5 ET45 fitment on lowered on H&R coils

    hi guys got a set of 19" r8 v10 replicas. i was advised they would fit. test fitted with 235/35/19 huge rubbing issue at the back. Will 225/25/19 be any better? or will i continue to suffer rubbing due to ET45 offset? it's a shame cos i really like the look

I didn't get the 3rd degree on it but in the short amount of time both of them were...

    Adjusting xenon headlight level on 8P3

    Hi I just got my car on h&r coilovers and just realised that while driving at night, my xenons point down and have seriously diminished range since changing the suspension. i have read up about levelling sensors not being aligned on the suspension, but i can only go back to the suspension...
