Default Volks and Brembos on the car... (many large pics)

I want to thank Kent for the pics, the photo lab seems to have lost mine. We met to swap mirrors today and snapped some photos. Anyway, here they are finally.

Here's a <a href="https://forums.audiworld.com/s4/msgs/418759.phtml">link</a> to the write up about the install.

In all its glory with the new brushed aluminum housings.

Default Looks great. Like the painted grille trim. That one small touch makes a big change.

Guess you were absent when they told us big brakes were a waste. Any benefits were all in our head. ;-)
I was gone that day also.

ET 30. That's a pic of an 8 mm spacer, I have four 5 mm spacers on order.

Default You're using 8 mm spacers with ET 30 offset? That's a net offset of 22!!!

ET 30 is aggressive enough (OE is 45, and they're 7.5" width like the Volks). WOW. Is it a clearence issue?
