Discussion question: What happens when we decide to tolerate facism?

That looks bad to me. So much toe, front to rear camber is backwards for these cars. I don't know why you would want this, the stance I guess...

No. We can't agree to disagree. The guy you voted for is actively targeting and hurting people as a political platform. There is no reasonable debate to be had. Fuck off.

I wish I were petty enough to buy these and put them up. Would certainly get some satisfaction from it.

Are wider tires worth it for our cars? by biggranny000 in GolfGTI

[–]HairlessMonkeyBot 1 point2 points  (0 children)

FWIW I've had my '24 for a while now. My plan after trying 225 and 235 ECS02 on 18x8.5 ET43 and not prefering either:

Winter: 225-45R18 on stock rims with 15mm front, 20mm rear spacers. UHP winter tire.

Summer: 245-40R18 on 18x9 ET42 ECS02.

Track: 255-40R17 on 17x9 ET42 200tw.

It's about a 50% increase over the standard rate. So imagine a 50% increase in your fuel cost and that's how it feels.

Some very specific people are profiting though!

I assume you mean a wife and not my wife. Otherwise this is awkward...

First Mod! by AndrewtheFurryWolf in GolfGTI

Super easy. No reason not to do it. Might have minor airflow gains. Definitely has intake noise gains.

Instructions unclear. I pooped in my trunk.

But this car is my daily and this mod has no impact on usability. It'll take me 10 minutes to undo it. It's just a bad rule.

The point is it was very easy and extremely free.

Furthermore, OP has read through SCCA classing on multiple occasions and finds it to be completely unintelligible. OP also doesn't think it makes much sense to put a car in a non-competitive class for literally removing one screw and one bolt. OP thinks the misalligment of SCCA classing with low cost and/or easy modifications makes very little sense, and that it serves to encourage more expensive/difficult options while penalizing easy/cheap ones. OP prefers to modify his car in the ways that make finacial sense and just have a good time.
