So very VW of you.. Mercedes wheel on a VW... Whats next? You gonna mount porsche wheels or ferrari wheels?

[Wschnitz]

Hey it is maybe one benefit of a VW, share the same bolt pattern with more then half of the companies VW owns

[bmwm42]

Shit is gay as fuck...would explain the owner

But I like it exactly like it is. Except the tire size, and I'm fixing that tomorrow. I'm going with a wider tires.

As for the wheels, I figure the car has an Audi drivetrain, I might was well extend that to the wheels. Now it really is just a VW body, sitting on an Audi chassis.

It's even better when the damn lug bolts aren't torqued to 250 ft. lbs. Surprised that crap didn't break anything.

[Twelvizm]

Yeah, that shit was bananas. I stopped going to that tire shop. I was extra pissed that they tried to argue that they use a torque wrench, and then couldn't tell me what pounds they wet it to.

:finger: ...only cuz I'm jealous.

[ajhostetter]

Adam, you should tell them they could at least have the decency to reimburse me the $9 I spent on a breaker bar at HF to replace my broken wrench. :giggle:

[Pdxseth]

My sister had problems with her lug bolts being over toqued on a pashit too

[Twelvizm]

Oouch.

[Pdxseth]

Yup I had to do wheel bearings, control arms, cv, brakes, fender and bumper. Thanks les Schwab
