hey does anyone know the GTi rear hubs spigot length is?


(this image is not of a VW Polo GTi hub)

Thats not a polo GTI rear end is it? Doesnt look like mine

no its not VW Polo GTi hub, but just an example of a spigot.

thanks

Is this in preparation for spacers dude? If so make sure you get hubcentric ones, not matter how big they are. They're much safer.

thanks man. yes hubcentric for the win.

But im looking at steel ones. extra weight, but I dont want to spend the money on Aluminium's if not absolutely necessary.

what you think?

not too sure on the pros and cons of alu and steel other than weight if im honest.

as long as they're strong and safe your fine, the weight thing is pretty insignificant given there size.

my adaptors are FK ones, they're nice and sturdy and hubcentric also. look up what FK use, as i'd recommend it. although i have a feeling it's an alloy. i'd do it myself but i'm on my mobile and it'll take me ages lol.

thanks man, much appreciated

well the dont have stock for the delta mic's any way so it looks like im going for H&R or Eibachs possibly FK's woop

i decided not to be lazy, and took a few pic's of the front and rear spigots, so peeps can have a look at measurements

FRONT HUB SPIGOT


REAR HUB SPIGOT

you can see why I have to go 20mm spacers on the rear now. and it looks like 15mm is minimum the fronts

Thats quite interesting!

indeed

Nice one for that. So your definitely going with the 15mm front and 20mm rear? Good to have someone finally doing something about the uber tuck RXIIs always give!

yup its official
