I have no idea why they are upside down, like I said when it comes to doing stuff online I am truly crap.

Damn that looks PHAT! Really like those rims, any rubbing issues buddy and what is the safest offset? is the 4.2tdi discs any bigger than usual?
cheers

Ha thanks, it gets a lot of looks and comments. No rubbing issues at all, I used lowering links to drop it about 35mm. The discs aren't a problem but the size of the front calliper can be, I used 10mm spacers on the front to get the look I wanted and clear the calliper. There's still quite a bit of space around the rears and I tow my caravan with this set up with no issues. Can't remember the exact offset but I'm sure I've made a note somewhere so I will get back to you.

What brand alloys are they budz?

They're genuine BBS LM alloys, I bought them used and had them recut and painted. They cost a small fortune new but you can buy very good replica sets if you look around.

I think lenso do set like that too. It's good to see a big car like the 8 can pull off with bbs alloys. Don't know how it will look on my one being the L version?.
Cheers
