Looking good mate, Only reason I bought my car is because it was fitted with these

Mine have white lettering though, o/s is different to standard, they fill the arches better.

Offset is way different, I was running a full H&R spacer kit with the original, these sit perfect without them.

Looks great, the red writing was putting me off until I remembered about the brakes. Not keen on the Mountune caps though, why do they do that?

Can I recomend..

[~nomad~]

mah.

What does that mean, good or bad ?

They look good mate, fill the arches nicely. Like I say, I dont think I would have bothered, they are very like the standards imho

Especially after seeing the price on the Mountune site!

Are they the same size or 19's? Lighter?

[~nomad~]

Lol, aint looked at price tbh.

[Max M4X WW]

I was just interested, I've never bought a brand new set of wheels, or performance exhaust, or anything really

[andymac]

I bought new wheels once...

They are the same size which is 19" and lighter

[Fezzy Turbo]

They do look good

You replaced the inlet yet?

I was thinking of ST's, arse.

When I was at Mountune Dave Moore Recognised my name on the jobsheet and came out to say hello. I mentioned I was waiting on a black inlet to complete the MR375 package. Mountune are due another batch of inlets soon but they are already accounted for through group buys on FRSOC etc. Dave said he'd try to get one set aside for me. So with any luck I'll be MR375 in a week or two!

Also got a set of Michelins Pilot Sports on order. My mate's doing them for 204 fitted & balanced each.

[Turboboy67]

Great price on the tyres !, I'll be going Pilot Sports when mine need replacing.

I ordered my inlet over 4 weeks ago through Pumabuild via FocusRSOC and no sign of it yet

I'm worried now that he meant +Vat, will have to double check

I ordered my Elevate torque mount 14th March and not had anything yet. I'm going to speak to Dave Moore on Tuesday regarding the Mountune trackday so will push him about the inlet, I would have thought they have a right to divert stock from a group buy if it meant they could fulfill an order for an MR375

[Max M4X WW]

If I was on a group buy and had paid up etc I'd be pretty angry

What size are they tyres? You checked camskill.co.uk?

[andymac]

I can't see them dicking around with a group buy, leaves them open for masses of negative publicity if it got out that stock had been diverted from an earlier order.

[heeman10]

Should I assume you've tried Camskill for tyre prices? They have absolutely blown everyone else out of the water, both times I have bought from them. That was for R888s for the ZT (HALF the price of the nearest competitor), and for the Proxes T1-Rs I run on the Audi (something like £200 cheaper than the nearest rival, for the set of four). Their prices are phenomenal!

[Max M4X WW]

T1-R's have always been cheap from them, but they are NLA so if you want anymore buy now!

[andymac]

Good call on camskill, I will need tyres for both cars shortly and they have some nice prices (have killed a set of avons in 8k miles, oops) Probably get rainsports though, I'm not a fan of modern asymmetric tyres - LSD seems to get very upset with them.

Tyres were a no-go in the end, his supplier could only get one at that price. I prefer Blackcircles to camskill as BC are fully fitted and not much different in price to Camskill. Looks like i'm gonna have to pay about 220-230 a corner

I've confirmed with Mountune I'll be attending their trackday in May, it's actually the week before FITP.

I've also got a date for the MR375 conversion, it will be fitted on Tuesday 1st May

Edit to add - Elevate Torque mount is now in stock so should be with me any day now!

[Max M4X WW]

What's wrong with the Conti's then?

[andymac]

Don't laugh at my suggesting this, but do you have a costco card ? Seem to remember they're not bad pricewise for michelins.

That has been suggested on the FRSOC, I dont have a card tho.

[andymac]

My old man does, but you'd have to wait to loj to get the rubber and even then it wouldn't be fitted. Or you can pop up, I'll get you a couple at trade and fit them for you at my mates place. Long trek for tyres, but there will be wine and cheesecake too.

EDIT : I'll ring for a price in morning, just out of interest. 235/35-19 W/V yeah ?

Did you ask if a passenger was ok?

[andymac]

Sorry pal, had an extremely tug day and completely forgot to ring them. I've put a reminder in for tomorrow (plus I'm going down my mates garage to borrow his van for the night, pick up an interior).

What's wrong with the Conti's then?

Side walls split on my Conti 3's and i have seen the same with the Conti 5's.

Just ordered 4 x Yokohama Advan Sport from Camskill

I'm going for the Michelin Super Sports, a bloke on FRSOC local to me got them for 220 each fitted, also includes free puncture repairs plus some Michelin safety kit thingy. They seem to be a popular tyre, the Monaro & VXR8 lads are starting to use them to tame their rwd craziness.

Another mod came through today, this one will be a bit hit & miss with some of you I fear

[~Tony~]

Think thats going to upset a lot of people, I wouldn't have it but then I have 3 kids to fit in my cars and rollcages don't help much with that.

That said I think its going to suit it and sit well in your unmodified RS500

[~S1~]

Think thats going to upset a lot of people,

I do hope so

[~nomad~]

I think thats the only reason you did it.

[Turboboy67]

I can see it being a Bic™ to fit though, good luck.

Roofrack and some deck chairs. Sorted

[Max M4X WW]

Presume you will keep all trim panels and fit the cage with ST items or similar?

I hope its going to painted red too

Wouldnt certainly be a quieter drive that way!

I spent ages trying to work out what a Roofrack was, read it as Roo Frack
