I find this a bit of a myth, mine is fine on the rear tyres. They wear evenly every time.

Seen a few cases on TT's but would have though the S3 to be the same, suppose depends how low you go to how much you will really need them.

Yeah S3 is pretty much the same, mine is quite low but on the 3rd set of tyres now and none go bald on the inside first.

But Will's seems quite a bit lower.

Looking good mate but cant help think the rear suspension looks totally odd in the original pics, there is a TT near me that I know for a fact is running standard springs etc and the suspension looks much lower than yours, is it the way the picture has been taken ?? original front looks normal but as I say rear looks almost like a 4x4 !!

-2002 is 20mm higher than +2002 models but yes, Will's original pics look very weird at the rear.

Whats the ride like on the FK's?

I just realised, they must fit with a motorsports-style central wheel lock.

Could be a bit of a bugger

Look like Billets, if so you can get them for studs as well (i think).

Looking good though will, my opinion of TTs are slowly changing not sure i could own one (yet) but would like a test drive though....

will dont be affended, but youve fitted a average handling car with terrible coilovers, what made you go for them ?

also mind your sump, they get hit and crack at standard hight

I agree with Jr, fk are shockingly bad, i dont understand how you will spend on the wheels but not the shocks?

Should have spoke to Robin at Jamsport for a deal on some Bilsteins as fitted to his Bmw, from what he tells me they're amazing!
