New Black Forest Industries Wheel Spacers Available Now

“On top of BFI’s already great selection of wheel spacers, they’ve added even more sizes and styles so that you can dial your fitment in to the millimeter. With two great finishes to choose from, lower prices, as well as a detailed removal notch, these are without a doubt an essential upgrade for your car. All spacers are offered in hubcentric bores specific to your VW or Audi.

BFI now offers your favorite spacers in not one, but two great finishes to better suit your vehicle and your build. The blasted and clear anodized silver finish is great for OEM applications and they will disappear behind your wheel without drawing attention to the fact that you’ve enhanced your stance. But if you’ve gone the more aggressive route with a custom finish and are looking for a compliment to those pricey rollers, the blasted and black anodized look will definitely do the trick.

Not all spacers are created equally. This new line takes careful consideration of the details. That’s why BFI has included a machined relief that is specifically designed to help aid you when it comes time to remove your spacers. If you’re new to the spacer world, you might not realize that it’s easy for corrosion on the brake rotor surface to cause your spacer to seize. While ultimately most people are concerned with a spacer staying put, you also want it to come off when you want to.

Even though the product has improved, as well as expanded the number of finishes and fitments, BFI has also managed to lower their prices across the board!. See more at https://store.blackforestindustries.com/”

Project SportWagen: Going Stage 2 with APR

When we last left you, the humble little SportWagen was fresh from the development process with our friends at AWE Tuning, sporting a new downpipe, exhaust and intake, allowing things to breathe a bit easier. The car sounded great, but there was no getting around the fact that our wagon was still quite, well, slow. While we realize that nothing we do to the Golf SportWagen at this point will make it a race car, we still felt compelled to do something . To put it bluntly, we had a fever, and the only cure was more power. Flash forward a few hours, and we found ourselves at Waterfest, staring down APR’s palatial spread and the numerous tuned vehicles surrounding it. Earlier in the year, APR had hinted to us that their 1.8 TSI files would be quite impressive, and based on what they were able to do with the 2.0 TSI found in the new GTI and our time in their Golf R, we knew it’d be worth the wait. So with this in mind, we lined our G...

Volkswagen Group Records Best Ever First-Half-of-Year Sales

With 5.5 million vehicles in customer hands after the first six months of 2018, the Volkswagen Group is seeing the best performance of its history. Group deliveries increased significantly in all core regions,” said Fred Kappler, head of sales for the Group. “Our core brands recorded strong growth in the first half year.” For the year-to-date, all of Volkswagen’s brands had sales bumps. MAN, SEAT, and Skoda led the sales charge with performances 24%, 17% and 11% better than the previous year. The big sellers, too, had strong sales periods, with Volkswagen Commercial Vehicles, Audi, and Volkswagen sales rising 3.5%, 4.5% and 6.3% respectively. That last figure is particularly good new for the board, since Volkswagen alone sold more than 3 million vehicles in the first half of 2018. As Kappler stated, the numbers are equally good when you break sales down by region. Brazil and Russia were the most improved markets (22% and 20%, respectively), while strong sales in Europe and China (u...

Project Golf SportWagen- Intro

I’ve never really been one for SUVs and crossovers. The current offerings aren’t the body-on-frame, go-anywhere specialty tools I remember from my youth, and what they lack in capability, they also lack in on-road performance. The current crop isn’t terribly good at handling or being efficient, which in my opinion are major components of our ideal driving experience. So when it comes to space or utility, I usually look for something of the wagon variety- and it seems that I’m not alone. We hit quite a few shows around the east coast each summer, and we see modified Jetta SportWagens at nearly every event. Even amongst common consumers, these cars are highly sought-after. They don’t depreciate much, making even early Mk 5 2.5 versions expensive in comparison to other Jettas or Golfs of the same vintage. This year, Volkswagen launched their latest SportWagen, which is now billed as a Golf. In many ways, this latest SportWagen is the best yet and it has certai...
