    Bolt on Big Brake Kit For around 300$.

    I just installed this setup on my soarer and everything bolted up perfect but my wheel (17x8 +35) would not clear the spokes.does anyone know if na mkiv fronts will clear? Or maybe sawblades with a 5mm spacer?

    New Castrol Edge

    by German castrol do you mean the 0W 30 synthetic? because i remember in a previous thread you mentioned that the 5W 40 I use is also a German formula. Lol i got freaked out because I could only find one bottle of the old syntec on the shelves.
