Re: Merc wheels on a passat - Help Please?
Sounds fine on that tyre size mate, If anything you could even drop down to 225/35/18.
I'm running 8.5j / 9.5j's on mine and mines now a bit lower then my signature and have no issues with scrubbing or poking. Even fully loaded I have no issues.

Considering selling my b5.
After what has seemed to be a whirl wind romance, I think the time has come for my loon to go. :-? I've worked out I'm going to need a small van for carrying equipment + me and the missus want something we can take on camping trips. Do we think I can get between £1200-1400 for my lil old oil burner...

Re: Plasti-dipped my B5.
Read again, nothing hired, all bought, brand new............ That's the issue with you 'opinions', they are normally misguided. That would be correct, I have bought everything for around £500. Nothing is borrowed. I could charge less then £450 but it would barely be worth my while. Everything tak...

Re: Plastidip??? Plasti Sh!*
Thats bad luck, maybe needed to peel it off earlier while it was wet.
The other option is don't mask up and use a microfibre to clean all the mess once its dried. I did this with the over spray on my windows.

Re: Plasti-dipped my B5.
I wouldn't worry about primers with trim. Just make sure you get plenty of coats on and allow for drying between coats.

Favour Needed badly. Collection in Sunderland.
Basically just won myself a jap spec for my car on ebay. However he can post it as he's really busy. Can someone collect it and post it to me?
I can offer you some money via paypal if that helps. I'll also pay for the postage.
Thanks in advance.

Re: Plasti-dipped my B5.
So what did you use to spray it on then? My old man has a compressor, so I was thinking of just getting a spray gun and using that. 10L you say to do the whole car? How many coats? What did you mask? From the vids it looks like very little is required. Wheels and windscreen really. All the pros see...
