Won't be until March in afraid bud

I really love the colour! Motorsport Gold is not too shiny, it will be good looking

Regarding you bought your PS4S in 255 all around, I'm reflecting about the dimensions of tires homologated on the G42. Could you post a picture of the sticker in the door?

Thanks!

can't wait to get them on, been in my plans since I got it

Wasp_Factory · 10-30-2023, 12:02 PM

Since you're going to have non OEM wheels, Wolfie, you may as well go ahead and fit your Eibachs!

cannockwolf · 10-30-2023, 01:07 PM

Still debating that tbh especially with the trouble that YouTuber had with his m2 warranty after he modded it

Be nice if they atleast figured out the suspension thump. I have eibach springs sitting in my garage. I have to take the car in for the yearly oil change may ask them about it again.

Wasp_Factory · 11-01-2023, 11:19 AM

If they ever work that out and have a fix, I'll swap back to the OEM springs before taking it back to the dealer for the fix. I have nearly 2 years before they'll see it at its first service.

cannockwolf · 11-16-2023, 08:55 AM

Tyres being fitted next week but heres a teaser

cannockwolf · 11-17-2023, 04:58 AM

It had to be done

The centre console trim is extremely acurate colour the light trim not but you cant really see that very clearly so its staying on, looks more stock with them on as the oem plain black trim seems like somethings missing, so good one. for £12 its a no brainer

I’ve just ordered them for mine, had them in my last G20 and it makes a big difference to the dash

cannockwolf · 12-01-2023, 08:26 AM

Test fitment and to make sure the TPM works still, and to get some quick photos of course

Fidiman · 12-03-2023, 01:52 PM

I truly love the VS-5RS in that colour! They really match your car

Now, it need a slight lowering

LivingInSalt · 12-04-2023, 07:39 AM

How's the clicking going?

not running them till march so ill post up, didnt hear anything on the few 100 yards to test them

Wasp_Factory · 12-05-2023, 12:09 PM

Looks lovely Wolfie, but plus 1 for lowering. You could hide an army in those wheel arches!

cannockwolf · 12-05-2023, 12:25 PM

i had only just put them on so thats a little unfair as they have to settle down yet, so do look ridiculously high in those pics, but im still deciding on the suspension due to my warranty, i think once i have had it a while and the chances of the suspension being faulty has dropped a lot, i may put my eibach pro springs on, which are currently in storage

Wasp_Factory · 12-07-2023, 12:07 PM

I suspect that once you get past a year/10k miles or so you'd struggle to claim a damper on warranty anyway - particularly given the state of our roads.

If it happens to me, I'll simply swap back to the OEM springs and give it a go with the dealer. Frankly, as soon as Ohlins or similar sort coilovers that works with the EDC, I'm probably going to swap anyway.
