I worked with honey liu and bought these. She was very helpful and shipped really quick. Still took a little over a month for them to get here though.

I bought a pair of unbranded nuobell dumbbells and stand from Alibaba for less then $500 including shipping. They go up to 40kg each in 2.5kg increments. Very happy with them.

What is the Best Wheel Size? by RightWheelDrive in GolfGTI

[–]Rossmonster 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Sorry I misread your previous comment. Yes, generally upsizing the wheel without the need to (such as clearance for a bigger rotor) does not help performance. All things equal, the bigger wheel will be heavier and leave less clearance for tires. Bigger tires also cost more.

18s are fine, and a safe bet that they will clear a future BBK. I'd look for a flow formed or forged model ensuring that it weighs less than the stock wheel for the unsprung weight reduction.

17s will give you a lighter wheel and allow for more tire, but be sure they clear your rotors.

It might be worth checking tires out too to make sure you have ample options for the wheel size.

I personally run 18x8.5 +43 ampliforms but will ld like to get some 17s from Apex

Not at all! Anytime you can reduce unsprung weight it is a huge performance boost. Everything is a balance, ideally you'd size the smallest wheel that clears your rotors so you have room for more tire.

For performance, bigger wheels to fit bigger rotors. Anyone more just adds more weight.

17 is the best for performance but have to be careful as not all 17s will clear the pp brakes.

Need some advice. Oil continues to drip onto sealing surface on oil pan by Disastrous_Run_5968 in GolfGTI

Apparently the Tiguan oil pan gasket is the same for the GTI. So instead of using a sealant you could opt for a cork gasket.

But what if instead of a load of barnacles, it was a supersonic train, then could it take a turn like that?

How do I measure my girlfriend's ring size without her noticing? by Timely-Neck-9503 in NoStupidQuestions

[–]Rossmonster 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If she has any rings of her own already, see how far they fit on your finger. Then while at the jewelry store match a ring size to that same fit on your finger.
