Car: VW Bora 2lt FWD
Wheels: Audi A8 Flat5s
Front: 18x8.5 et30 (after 15mm adapter) 215/40/18
Rear: 18x8.5 et25 (after 20mm adapter) 215/40/18
Fenders Rolled: Yes
Fenders Pulled: No
Camber: Rear has additional 1deg each side (approx 2.5deg each side total)
Suspension: TA Technix. Helpers out in the front. adjusters, perch, and bush all still in the rear.
Notes: Perfect daily spec... proper sized and legal fitment, wheels would have sat inside the guards if my rear beam was centred (is now), looked like factory wheels.
Would have loved to go lower but rubbing the drivers side driveshaft on the body and wouldnt have lowered the rear anymore without the front going down because cars should have rake :P

Notes: Had these on at too stages, most of the photos are from GAF11 are with the arches unrolled and rear wound up 10mm
then back it up for Nats12 with the fronts rolled and rears wound down. made for fun times with 4 people in the car..
again, would have loved more lows but the front driveshaft was in the way.

Notes: Had these on at too stages again, early stages car was a bit higher and didnt have extra camber (Nationals 2011)
then the car was lowered all round and the shims were left in after the LMs. Arches were also rolled in recent times.
Will be improving the specs shortly

for reference, this is what a 215/40/18 looks like on a 8.5 and a 225/40/18 on a 9.
these fitments meet the manufactures spec believe it or not.
