hi all just sold my scooby and bought a tt 05 love it had it 6 wks already had it remapped full system and filter its 286 at the moment going for 20 inch rims next im an ally welder so im making my own intercooler then bigger turbo and injectors any advice on tuning or other stuff all be welcome

 

well first thin I would recommend is not going for 20" rims! They are way too big I know people that have got 20's and regreted it ever since, its a luxury sports car not a Hummer or a escalade, but good luck with your decission. read more about it and see what kind of problems people have had.

 

Funny thing! I was thinking that it is too nice a car to make it into something like that; but it is a personal choice.

And YES! The wheels are too big for the openings: they will rubb and hit the "under-fender"

I would suggest doing a "Neuspeed" job on it and lower it with springs and Konnies (yellow): I have that set-up with factory rims...

 

ok thats great feedback wot about 19s or shall i stick with 18s . im going for the kahn rsr they suit the car well. i had kei racing on my scoob perhaps they would look fine aswell. force 10 ..thanks for the comments guys

 

the TT is a fiarly small car and if you put on sport springs and stick to 18's you will have no issues infact it will look great with the car and you arent compramising on tire size either, as well your handeling is more responsive and better. the bigger the rims the bigger the tire the more expensive and the more weight you add on which in all aspects is a loss except for looks if you like that kind of thing. I am really not into it and do not want to compramise the driveability and performance of the car just for looks.

 

I would stick with 18"s for daily driving and 19"s for show...

 

just ordered koni coilovers and 18" kahn rsr . lowered by 30-35 mm and tarox front and back discs grooved ... or and fast road pads al round . i think that will do for a bit

 

yeah man... 19"s are too much for daily driving... you might bend them or something... post some pics when you get the rims installed...

 

hey man - were you on TSC too?

seems like the move from scoobies to audis is a natural one - gotta love AWD!

 

ye need to feel in control its all good with awd . need more power though!!!!
