I know this because all of the above opposites happened when I fitted bigger and heavier wheels to my Golf GTI!

Suggestion

However as stated before on other threads there is a big difference if you run on 95 RON rather than 98 RON.

These are separate views of the same evidence. Frequency alone does not establish a fix, and these counts must not be added together.

Coverage and how to read this overview

Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

9 eligible posts · 0 unverified posts · 1 discussions match the subject in their title or opening post.

POST 1 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Hi, I am sure I have read that whilst these wheels look the same and are the same size. On the C4S they are solid but on the Turbo hollow spokes. Would there be anything to gain putting Turbo hollow spokes on a C4S - presumably the hollow spokes from the turbo are lighter. Would this sort of tweaking even be noticable?

POST 2Original post

Yes - there ought to be as you would have immediately lowered the unsprung weight. As a result, your acceleration should be slightly spritlier (maybe 0.1s or 0.2s faster to a certain speed), your turn-ins should be faster too and your fuel consumption should be lowered. I know this because all of the above opposites happened when I fitted bigger and heavier wheels to my Golf GTI! ~ Maxie

POST 3Original post

can you really feel the difference? Apparently people can tell when they use optimax over standard stuff but its all wasted on me.......

POST 6Original post

Unless you are a trackday nut I doubt you would tell too much difference with hollow spoke v's solid heels.<WaitstobecorrectedbyaMantheyowner> However as stated before on other threads there is a big difference if you run on 95 RON rather than 98 RON. You won't notice it the first couple of tanks but you will thereafter. Old thread linky http://www.911uk.com/viewtopic.php?t=14524&highlight=ron

POST 7Original post

:lol: some wishes do come true... yes, hollow vs solid wheels are noticeably different... and ON the road! :wink:

POST 8Original post

In that case would I notice a big difference in handling characteristics if I put 18" Techart formula's on mine?
