Re: Beetlefanatic`s Cabrio By Bugger
Don't worry my friend, the wheels are already sorted 
Just to give you an idea of the wheel choice. (I think I posted this before).

Re: Beetlefanatic`s Cabrio By Bugger
Those are A-line Falcons. The BBS rims are going on the Bay.
Yes we are lowering it. That was just fooling around after I bought the wheels. The front beam with the adjusters is awaiting assembly and installation. The rear will be turned 1 spline I think. We'll see when we get there.
I can't wait!!

Re: Beetlefanatic`s Cabrio By Bugger
Looking great Pierre.
Do you have any pics of the discs and calipers? I'm dying to see what they look like up close.
