    I think Bigfoot is blurry, that's the problem. It's not the photographer's fault. Bigfoot is blurry. And that's extra scary to me, because there's a large, out-of-focus monster roaming the countryside. Run. He's fuzzy. Get outta here!

    God those wheels look so good. But I just went back and found the specs you ordered and I can't believe I'm going to even try running a more aggressive wheel than ones custom made for a mkiv haha. Yay -4.7 degrees of camber?

    Also, what show is this on the 18th? And is that August 18th?

    Yea its funny I kept checking the CCW FB and everytimeI did I would see we were mutal friends LOL

    Now that Ive seen the wheels I think I want to make my brakes either gloss black with white letters, grey with black letters, or maybe even gloss white with black letters. The white would probably look great but never be clean LOL

    It's more fb/word of mouth at this point but it's in downtown Boaz, AL on Aug.18th, starts at 7pm. It gets bigger every show and it's free to show and attend. Last show had 150 +/- showing and we have close to 200 confirmed so far for this one.

    Hey guys I am new to the site and a new owner of a MKVI TDI Jetta and was curious if there is anyone near the Dothan Alabama area willing to help a fellow dubber out? I am looking for anyone that has a VAG COM and the software to help me make some VCDS changes. Thanks in advance.

    There is a guy in Auburn with one but he isn't on here. He usually shows up to the Tuesday night GTGs though.

    Well here are the results... I couldnt be happier. Im getting those IDF drop plates next so the rear will have some camber and center up on the wheel well for more LOW. AND Im thinking either black calipers with white letters OR silver calipers with color matched blue letters....

    Haha that is awesome. What size and brand tires are you running on the rear? And it's 10" wide right?

    Yea 9" inch front and 10" rear. I had orginally planned for 215/40 all around and have seen it done on plenty of cars in the threads but for some reason CCW couldnt get the bead to set on the machine. Thats why they were a week late. Even the guy said one of the tires must have been defective becasue they have done it a 100 times. So I went up to a 225/40 in the rear. Which is a "safe" amount of stretch. but Ill probably go for the 215/40 next go around

    I'm going with 205/45 for my 10"... It's going to be crazy but that's the only way it will sit right since my camber is maxed

    What brand tire did you get?
