$500 for good coilover shells sounds like a pretty good deal, so any use you get out of them before rebuilding them is a bonus IMO.

Picked up my summer wheels from G5 recently, 15x7 +38 Kosei K2R.
I can't wait to throw them on, but I haven't decided on a tire yet.
I'm leaning towards the BFG Sport Comp-2 (UHP Summer) or Kumho 4X II (UHP All Season)

Go with the comp-2's. There's no point in going with no-seasons for a summer setup...

Picked up my summer wheels, Neuspeed RSE10 in midnight satin blue. 18 x 8.5".
More matte grey than I expected, which I'm happy with.

They look quite different in different lighting, see what I mean below.

Lol you aren't wrong! They are reasonably priced and go on sale frequently, not too heavy (19.0lbs for 18x8.5), hub centric, good offset for mk7, and takes OEM bolts and caps. I needed winters pronto so these were convenient to get.

Per this thread I just bought this.

As tastic said, Neuspeed wheels are unbelievably well-matched to VWs and Audis and are priced very well for how light and nice they are. I had the RSE12 on my GTI, and brought them over to the R as my winters. The RSE10 specifically, goes very well with the MK7 lines.

I probably would've went with OZ Leggera HLTs if they came in 18 x 8.5" and didn't require hubcentric rings and another set of bolts.

Already using it to make parts for the RallyBug:



...Which will eventually become the adapter plate I need to switch to Hydraulic Clutch system I'm working on. Currently sorting the transmission end, will then move on to sorting out the pedal end.

That moment when the border guard literally chastises you for not buying forged wheels. That just happened.

In other news, 18x10 track setup has arrived.
