  7. I think these are one of the only options other than going full coilover with adjustable top mounts -https://progressiveparts.com/product/superpro-vag-mqb-offset-strut-camber-mounts-front-trc5000 My 245 is running 310 now. . In the wet/damp/greasy its useless to try and get all the power down. . . Dogbone inserts help alot with wheel hop - I have the racingline twin piece version fitted - https://www.racingline.com/mqb-dogbone-insert-engine-mounts
  8. https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/226099614891?mkcid=16&mkevt=1&mkrid=711-127632-2357-0&ssspo=4IRGjOU0TEK&sssrc=4429486&ssuid=CZikgsQ0TdC&var=&widget_ver=artemis&media=COPY There was also a Vw dealer somewhere in Scotland selling off genuine 18inch pretoria's in the past couple of years. . I remember seeing them when I was on a wheel search
  9. This is my FL mk3 with 18 x 8j et45 Protrack ONE - 225/40/18's PS5's on h&r springs. . The facelift mk3 vRS has a 38mm wider rear track than the preFL - so basically like it's running 19mm spacers each side from the factory. So 18 x 8.5 et45 on a non lowered preFL car will fit fine. . .I've seen 19 x 8.5 et45 on a lowered FL MK3 and it's very tight in the rear arch. One thing I looked out for when changing was the weight of the wheels, alot of aftermarket wheels are actually heavier than the oem equivalent. . The Protrack ONE's as above are 3kg ligher PER corner. .the lighter unsprung mass makes a noticeable difference.
  10. I recently fitted bilstein b8's to my mk3FL . . Difference In performance is night and day. . I upgraded because one of the front oem shocks was shot at 40k miles. . I do have h+r springs fitted hence going for the b8 and not b6. . They are FIRM. . But not over the top firm, unless you drop it down a decent pothole-then they can be quite harsh, obviously this is where the compromise between comfort and performance steps in. . But in my experience upto yet the pros outweigh any cons you might experience. . Where the car used to feel a bit juddey and unsettled due to road condition is much much better now. The way it puts power down is also much improved, probably a combination of less squatting and wheel hop now. If you are looking to upgrade rarb - https://www.darksidedevelopments.co.uk/products/genuine-21-7mm-x-3-6mm-vw-mk7-golf-clubsport-s-rear-anti-roll-bar-upgrade.html This is a nice upgrade while staying quite oem. . I have one on mine, makes a difference for sure but no where near as much as the dampers do.
  11. 2008 is is mk2?. . .so wrong section of forum. . They never made a 1.8 vrs? Other than the mk1 octavia vrs. 2010 would be mk2FL Find a friendly MOT'er nod nod wink wink.
  12. The ecs tuning topmounts came with febi-bilstein bearings as a package- https://www.awesomegti.com/shop-by-brand/ecs-tuning/ecs-tuning-upgraded-front-strut-mount-kit-mqb/ When I took them off today I checked the bearings n they felt OK to be honest, I thought it might have just been the higher durometer of the actual top mounts making the noise on the strut shaft. Either way the cost of the ecs mounts can't be justified at all I don't think. . .we live and learn I guess. The new ones are just bilstein (I'm guessing bilstein and febi-bilstein must be a related company in some way?) . . The bearings look the same, but these ones aren't making any noise at all. . The others clicked from the moment it went back on the ground.
