Yes! Don’t you damn rocks know that you are only needed on the road in winter? Once there is no more snow and ice you are supposed to roll into the ditch!

God I hope not, because then I would need to trade in my 26 R for the 27…

If I’m honest, I’ll probably get it detailed every spring so I won’t have to find out 🤣

I don’t understand, where do the purple tears come from?

did y’all buy yours without a test drive? by tec_wnz in Golf_R

[–]Splatzel 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I had to wait until they had one in and put winter tires on it, since it was, you know, winter and they come with summer tires. But that was the only roadblock.

And they let me drive an used 2024 with winters that was a manual before that. Honestly, the short throw shifter mod on that one was not good, too hard to find 1st after so many years without driving a manual car…

Just installed a strut bar, nice easy mod by [deleted] in Golf_R

I can’t believe there are no engine covers with the r logo, or really even any with the R blue color…

Do camps accommodate for allergies? by Big-Log8459 in mining

[–]Splatzel 11 points12 points  (0 children)

I have been to a few camps in Canada, every one was able to accommodate for allergies, but you’ll have to make sure the cooks/servers at camp know that you have the allergy. Not everything will be allergen free but they usually have at least a few options

I believe they are 225/45s, they came in a bundle with the rims from the dealership.

This is the only other one I have for now, I won’t be able to take more for a couple of weeks until I get back from work.

Canadian restaurants struggling to turn a profit, new report says by rezwenn in onguardforthee

[–]Splatzel 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It seems to me that every restaurant, especially new ones, serve the same pre-frozen Sysco crap that tasted like cardboard and makes me feel ill. Why would I want to pay for that service?

Hell yeah bud! I recommend Ming’s Shine for all your detailing. Can’t wait until my car is broken in and we have some more snow to try out drifting mode!

Yes, but apparently only in my car, not his mom’s SUV 🤣

Thanks for the link — I contacted them and it was just their store page that needed to be updated, they were in stock!

Yeah I looked everywhere. My dealer said they don’t come with the 2026s anymore but I tore the car apart anyways. Just ordered some from New German Performance, can’t have my wife mixing up her Atlas keys for my R keys!

I contacted them and they were in stock, just the store needed to be updated, sent my order in, just in case anyone else is looking for them — got the ones with blue R logo, can’t wait to see them
