Find which one you like best? I think the CTR and N are closest in terms of what they are but the Yaris GR is a new beast and the Golf R is the most sedate (stock).

So pissed but not surprised that NA isn't getting the Yaris GR seems pretty pricey on the other hand dang a car that small with AWD seems pretty unique though Monkey Fracas fucked around with this message at 21:02 on Feb 26, 2020 |

Agreed, we need more bonkers cars, ugly or not. Too many eggplant CUV blobs. And I like it too but that’s my inner high school ricer.

So VW really did realize that they created the platonic ideal of a hatchback in 2003, and have just been updating the features and looks a little bit each time since then? If so they're definitely right.

So is the Golf Mk 8 a Mk 7 with a new front end, like what the Mk 6 was to the Mk 5?

Is there a cheat sheet for dropping wheel sizes? I'm considering dropping from the stock 20 inch wheels On my type R to an 18 Inch Wheel but I don't have too much clearance to drop a lot of ride height to get out of my steep driveway

Solus posted:Is there a cheat sheet for dropping wheel sizes? The sums are really easy to do manually? Just take your existing tyre specs e.g. 235/45 and do the calculation to figure the sidewall height, i.e. 235*.45=105.75mm. Add 25.4mm to that number to take into account your wheel radius dropping by an inch. Now find 18 inch tyre sizes which get you a sidewall height as close as possible to 131.15mm. If you’re wanting to figure out how the wheels you’re looking at will fit overall as well the tyres then there are websites like willtheyfit.com where you can punch all of the numbers in and it will give you a graphical representation of everything.

https://tiresize.com/calculator/ You can compare sizes and they have a conversion tool. 245 40 18 is a 2mm diameter difference. You'll be fine. Wrar fucked around with this message at 17:09 on Mar 8, 2020 |

Solus posted:Is there a cheat sheet for dropping wheel sizes? to my knowledge TireRack's database is pretty decent as well. Just plug in your model year and trim and it'll filter the wheel sizes based on stock brake clearances and I think wheel offset.

I've thought about it as well, the car already has pretty good power for an econobox so the supercharger would make it a legit hot hatch. Already planning on some good summer rubber, a TRD rear sway bar and maybe some springs. These cars actually handle pretty decent with good tires.
