Thats an Eibach chassis brace.StuartGT2 wrote:Thanks for the info, I don't think I'll be going wide enough to need my arches rolled, my Sebrings are only 15x6 and thinking of 165/50 rubber. I'm just not sure what size of spacers to get, I guess I'll try 25mm first on the rear, tbh the front doesn't need much at all the offset on the rims ET35. My coilovers look identical to those, what kind of strut brace is that?Eurobox wrote:Certainly sir, they're 15x8 ET25 all round with hubcentric 25mm spacers in front and 30mm in rear, tyres are 185/45 and yes it has coilovers. Rear arches rolled.StuartGT2 wrote:Hey Eurobox, can you give me any details on your alloy size adn offset, tyre size and spacer depth if you have any. I've got a GT2 just like yours and I'm scratching my head at what spacer depth to get and tyres for my 15" Sebrings. I taje it your cars running of coils too?Eurobox wrote:Here's a few pics of mine...
Cheers
Hope this helps.
Also as advised by Mr Funk I also got a front lower chassis brace, believe you me if you're going low and wide this is essential...

The car feels immediately way less (for want of a better word) wallowy in the twisties and more rigid and steering feels more responsive, but it's a definite noticeable difference, I'm glad I bought it. Only takes about 5 minutes to fit too.Mrgarf wrote:Eurobox wrote:Certainly sir, they're 15x8 ET25 all round with hubcentric 25mm spacers in front and 30mm in rear, tyres are 185/45 and yes it has coilovers.

I've currently not got a lower chassis brace , what benefits you finding? Also eurobox do you have any front on pics because I'm interested how the wheels sit cheers
Anyway cheeky pic of mine
Don't have any front on shots yet, I'll nab a few over the weekend and get em up for you shortly.
Yeah I'm liking your gold Scirocco... liking it a lot. I've never seen a gold one before actually

Welcome
Egor looks good, is he black?
I know your name from one of the other vw forums unless it's a coincidence.

Well, had a day on both my car and Pauls GT. These are the clear indies that I bought from Alex the other week. Used an old broken set of amber indicators and ground and shaped with a Dremmel and mated them up to the clear fronts.
They have a slight off white tint to them but they blend in with the brown of the Storm, thoughts, good or bad?
