I must admit it makes a huge difference, seems more stable

Heres a few pics on how I did it

BTW mine didnt have the extended bolts as you'll notice

------------------

First things first off with the rear wheels and give the hubs a wee clean up and apply the copper grease

Then apply the grease to all the bolts including the ones that came with the kit to avoid seizing up later on

Make sure there tight enough obviously then its back on with the wheels and admire your handy work

Heres a before and after pic of the wheels

Yup same ones as on mine 20mm looks good when you drive it you will notice the difference as soon as you take any bend. Best, safe, and affordable moddification going in my eyes.

nice one! They do make quite a difference and definately make it look so nicer with the wheels filling the arches..

Badgerbill sells the proper top quality ones :) Are usually some kicking around on ebay but i personally wouldnt trust most of them :p

I got mine off this guy too. had them fitted about a week. He is recommended from some of you mk3 guys.

If you order them from him specify your car and that they are for the rear!!

They dont fit otherwise!! Well not on mk2's anyway. I sent mine back, he machined them to fit and sent them back with no extra charge :D

This company do alot of performance products. I would recommend thier customer service to anyone. Ring them up for a laugh!

I got them off ebay

http://stores.ebay.co.uk/AC-Motorsport-Services

They cost me £43.50 delivered to my door and are very good quality

Fair enough there are more expensive ones out there but the guy aint had any bad feedback about them so only time will tell I guess

sorry mate wasnt saying all the ones from ebay were rubbish just that people need to be careful with really cheap ones. Go for the good feedback like you have.. although the feedback will have been given when the items were recieved rather than like 10k miles later :)
