Re: Need help, quick sharp!

Need help, quick sharp!

I've got a set of G60 steels that I want to fit this afternoon, they're 15'', ET35. I need to know what size tyres are suitable, i'm guessing at 195/45/15 but I wanted something that looks quite low-profile, but won't affect the odometer/speedometer. I've trawled through the various FAQ's and stuff ...

Help!

As the sun is out I thought i'd get a few jobs done on the Scirocco today. I've just replaced the air filter with a nice new k&n one, but after replacing the air cleaner cover and re-fastening the clips, I dropped the mounting nut into the engine bay - doh! It looked like it went in behind the ...
