Congrats on the new European automobile.

Congratulations on the new Golf R! Fantastic little rocket. My suggestion is to keep the stock wheels for now, the stockers look pretty good. Go for the Coilovers, exhaust and ECU upgrade for now. The rest you can do later if you want.

Nice R! looks good.
planned mods sound very good as well.

I like the LMs as well, but consider OZ Ultraleggera. only ~9kg per rim.

And i would suggest 8 or 8.5 x 19"

I'm deciding between these wheels (considered HREs, but too much $$$):

CH-R black


LM-R diamond black


RE diamond black


Or if I come up with the loot, HRE P40 in gloss charcoal:
Congratulations. You will love your car. I have some suggestions if you allow me
- get the EVOMS intake for K04 (better than Carbonio)
- Akrapovic haven't released and exhaust for the Golf R yet. I even offered to send my car to them for development but they said it's not on their to-do list. Go with Milltek TBE non-res (it's awesome)
- HPFP: go for HPFPupgrade Stage 2 kit (www.hpfpupgrade.com). Better than anything out there on the market
- Porsche BBK: if you will get the Cayenne BBK (6 pot) they are overkill for you master cylinder and ruin your brake bias. I recommend Alcon Mono4 for Golf R, or AP Racing BBK
- get the LED tails


Cheers and enjoy your car
