    Rotiform Wheel Fitment BTL 21 x 9.5 ET25

    I have dropped the wheels off the weekend just gone, the rears fitted worse than the fronts by 2mm. hopefully I will get my money back for the wheels, I left them at a Rotiform distributor to get collected. I’m just going to get a set of 21” rotors for the interim until I get the car lowered...

    Rotiform Wheel Fitment BTL 21 x 9.5 ET25

    So the rim is 13mm outside of the arch, regardless of tyre size these would never work. the offset is far too agressive. not sure how Rotiform could say these fit, there’s no room behind to have the backs machined due to the calipers. see what options they give me.

    Rotiform Wheel Fitment BTL 21 x 9.5 ET25

    I’m going to test fit again today, and put some thing staight against the edge of the rim and measure the rim to arch distance. My end goal was for these to be tucked in the arches. I’ll report back

    Rotiform Wheel Fitment BTL 21 x 9.5 ET25

    I don’t think even with say a 255 they would work. the rim is out past the arch. I can’t see how lowing it will camber it in that much. The rim is proud of the arch. thanks for your response! Hopefully someone who knows what the max offset is and width combo.

    Rotiform Wheel Fitment BTL 21 x 9.5 ET25

    Hello, long time since I last made a post, but still view the forum regularly. I have purchased some new wheels from Rotiform, 21” BTLs which they said would fit… well seems they don’t. They confirmed everything with me, model, Year etc. The offset seems far too aggressive, the rim pokes out...

    Awesome Front Splitter

    I just bought one £47 from my local seat! Couldn't give me discount or anything he said he was only making £2, he said years ago when the cupra first came out they were £12

    Awesome Front Splitter

    There really isn't a decent splitter/lip I can find (to my taste anyway) I have just stumbled upon something though, I know the picture is of it on a c6 a6 but I think it may work on a b7, will go and have a measure up of a a6 when I next see my friend, opinions??

    Ericher i think is the brand, got them from euro car parts, a little update, had the wheel off earlier checked the two bolts, they were fine, got my finger on the pads and they have a little bit of movement, is this normal? Checked over all of my bushes (just visually) looked in good nick, I had...

    B7 Cabriolet, Brakes knocking after changing pads

    Never replaced the retaining clips, I refitted the originals if that is what you mean, I will take the wheels off at the weekend and check, I did get an extension bar in and gave it a once over yesterday to see if they were tight and I couldn't get any movement, the backs of the pads have plenty...

    B7 Cabriolet, Brakes knocking after changing pads

    Hi all, I changed my front pads the weekend just gone, I am getting a knock every time I apply pressure to the pedal, even if it is ever so slight that you are not braking it still knock, it also knocks over sharp bumps, it never did this before replacing the pads, I have ate calipers, first...

    Post pics of your B7 A4/S4!

    I think 18s are too small, the 30 you are saying is 30% so say your rim is a 8j a 235/30/18 tyre, it will sit with no stretch, the 30 is 30% of the total width so 30% of 235 is around 7.1cm i have attached a pic of mine on 18s with 235/40/18 tyres on, sorry its dark

    Speedo is slightly out Since you run or were running 235/30 and I'm running 225/35 the profiles should be somewhere similar. Rough calculations below. 7.9cm mine 7.1cm yours
