Can you link? I'm not sure if I have the wrong BR Performance Tiktok account or they have deleted the video but it's not showing.

I’ve used Camskill Tyres and they're usually very good price-wise. Delivery service was also good. They are supply-only so you’d need to find your own fitter. Website; https://www.camskill.co.uk/

Like @OomStu_ZA I’d also recommend Michelin. I had Michelin PS4 on my 2020 Polo GTI+ (I no longer ...

Cheers guys. Currently looking at around £155 per tyre (no fitting). Anywhere you can recommend for a better price or is that the going rate for 18s?

Wow I wasn't expecting gains like that.

Hi all,

Looking for decent tyres for my GTI. Only road use but don't want to skimp, at the same time haven't got money to burn though. Are there any go to tyres you can recommend? I'm running the 18" VW alloys.

West Yorkshire Tuning has the 2021+ version listed now but I haven't contacted as they are too far away.

Don't suppose anyone has heard anything yet? The ECU has been unlocked (think this was posted earlier in the thread).

Can't believe nobody has mapped one yet.

Anyone got any updates? Haven't heard of anyone doing them yet personally.

Thank you. Do you know what that means in terms of spark plugs and coil packs?

Hi all,

Does anyone know exactly which car parts (mainly engine) are different on the facelift GTI?

Spark plugs, coil packs, brakes etc? I can't find a clear list and I've found that some places show incompatible parts when I use the registration or manually enter the model (induction kits that ...
