Unfortunately what this demonstrates is that a 2018 R requires $1.5-$2K worth of ramz over the purchase price. Because the stock wheels are

It's IMO a great idea to immediately remove and store the stock and questionable OE tarz on most new cars, that way they're pristine when day comes. Additionally you get to enjoy lighter wheels and better tarz for your ownershit duration.

Its also a sad day that I'll have to buy the tuna to beat a stupid honduh.
What stock tarz came with it? The P Zero's are serviceable. I definitely won't be buying them again but they're okay. Continentals aren't great if I remember right.
I think you can do the fender screw mod to get some more room in the fender.

I specifically seeked out the contis. They are 5/7 for daily driving, and I have yet to challenge their limits in any non-winter conditions. If they last a long enough time and wear evenly I might get them again.Gberg2119 wrote:What stock tarz came with it? The P Zero's are serviceable.

This apparently isn't going to cut it for our Airboat friend. He's going from purchase to Lou Maiuri and Fireball have nothing on this breh. Warranties are for the olds.Gberg2119 wrote: ↑Mon Jun 04, 2018 4:41 pm What stock tarz came with it? The P Zero's are serviceable. I definitely won't be buying them again but they're okay.

Yeah I get than an APR tune on an R would make it a rocket, but I'm not nuking a 6 year warranty.[user not found] wrote: ↑Mon Jun 04, 2018 5:08 pmFBO or bust, bro.Desertbreh wrote: ↑Mon Jun 04, 2018 5:01 pm

I should link up my classic vortex posts of old, back when I cared.

I'm likely going this way. A mild tune, 50hp/tq which doesn't push things too hard, and doesn't fry my stock clutch. Going APR Stage1 is instant clutch nuker.dubshow wrote: ↑Mon Jun 04, 2018 5:19 pmIts a option and every derp runs them on bmw turbro shit.[user not found] wrote: ↑Mon Jun 04, 2018 5:17 pm

Oh wow. I remember those trolls. IIRC they're still trolling the dead zone big turbo thread.Desertbreh wrote: ↑Mon Jun 04, 2018 5:01 pmThis apparently isn't going to cut it for our Airboat friend.

BMW douchebags spam posting a VW forum.
I vaguely remember them posting pics of themselves to show how cool they were.[user not found] wrote: ↑Wed Jun 06, 2018 10:21 amIt's ok, the BMW interiors aren't superior, and we know it.
I was really hoping on the mk7.5 they did a revised sachs clutch, but I cant find ANY part numbers to back this up. i also dont have access to current model ETKA and couldnt find anything for 2018 online ETKA. Its crazy to think they would make 70+ hp over the GTI and use the same clutch.fledonfoot wrote: ↑Mon Jun 04, 2018 8:35 pmI'm likely going this way.

Im also curious about the slight 10hp power bump the R got in europe for 2018. How would that not trickle to US especially since the Rs are all built in the same factory.

There was a thread on dead zone mk7 I saw a few months ago that devolved into them posting about how good they and their wives look. Inckuding pictures. It was a thread about swirl marks.
