Last week I got some rear windows fitted.

Next job is to get some alloys, I’ve been looking at Wolfrace X10X but do I go silver or black??

I bought them as a wheel/tyre package. They have UniRoyals on them.

Ah ok. Have you lowered your van? If so what did you get and what is the ride like now?

Yeah, it was the standard VW lowering springs on it as I just wanted a slight drop. I think the ride is ok. It is a van afterall and I dont know anything different. I think it defo is a better ride with the new wheels less boaty and wobbly if that makes sense.

These are 8.5x18 Wolfrace Eurosport Dortmund Gloss Black. Ordered them directly from Wolfrace and came within 2 days. I wanted the extra sidewall because of the shocking roads around me so went with 18’s
