Audi TT - Installing Bimecc Wheel Spacers [WHAT NOT TO DO!] 😳😳

[@froomer17]

I'm with the exact same mate - worth getting a wheel hanger to put wheels back on. And always use a manual torque wrench! :)

[@JamesCF10]

Someone mentioned this wheel hanger thing to me before, I'll definitely look into it

[@ITSARAPPTTRS]

Bloody hell mate, that could have been catastrophic!!!!!!! Phew you got away with it thankfully to tell the tale. Looks great though!

[@Slugworth88]

Yes, mate, are the spacers still installed? Are they still holding up, and dis you have any more issies with bolts? I just had 4 bolt sheared last week, so I'm looking for some quality bolt replacement Thanks in advance

[@JamesCF10]

They are indeed, no issues with bolts thankfully. I honestly wouldn't even know which direction to point you in for better ones

[@danielaaron6070]

It looks like your release valve on your jack has ether gone or wasn’t tightened fully if tightened fully shouldn’t drop 🙏

[@danielaaron6070]

Cross fingers it’s one maybe just the valve not tight on it if it’s faulty I’m sure u have a warranty and can exchange it 🙏

[@Cam_Wight]

Looks sick mate, was thinking about it for mine. Probably a mute point but has it reduced efficiency?

[@JamesCF10]

Get on it Cam 🙌🏾 nah no difference to efficiency

[@whatsee-ed3fs]

Hi! I've enjoyed your video, would you recommend for me to buy audi tt? Actually i've been considering about buying a car ( stinger or audi tt) in here, korea. We can not purchase audi tt because of VW emmisions scandal after 2015. So i can only used audi tt..if u were like me, what choice do u make?

[@JamesCF10]

Ah that's interesting! I'd definitely try to test drive both cars as the stinger offers way more space and practicality, but the TT is such a good car!

[@janix_17]

Looks good 👍. Glad nothing bad happened.

[@JamesCF10]

Nice one mate

[@Richard1944]

Love your videos keep it up

[@JamesCF10]

Thanks very much!

[@lukaszM46]

how are the spacers after some time? no vibrations? is Bimecc a good brand? I saw they sell kits for 4 spacers + extended bolts on ebay that are like half the price of H&R spacers

[@JamesCF10]

Still perfect, no issues at all. Bimecc are pretty good, I got mine from ebay as well I think

[@lukaszM46]

@@JamesCF10 awesome, thanks for the reply! I might go with them. One more question, do you remember if there was a lot of room behind the hub that the bolts could stick out? I am asking because I am looking at an eBay listing of 2x15m and 2x20mm spacers from bimecc, but they come with 20x45mm bolts instead of 10x40mm + 10x45mm. This means that the 15mm spacers would have 5mm longer bolts than needed, and i am worried about them protruding too much

[@JamesCF10]

@@lukaszM46 hmmm I'm not sure sorry, all I know is - they fit perfectly haha

[@m2tlr804]

Looking fire 🔥

[@JamesCF10]

Thank you bro

[@danielpdantis]

Whats the torque setting for the wrench?? Mate cheers

[@JamesCF10]

Haven't got a scoobie 😂😂 I went to a random garage that sorted it. I'm sure the torque settings are detailed in the door shuts though

[@danielpdantis]

@@JamesCF10 haha 😂 😂 no worries mate

[@robbie121981]

Is the car lowered in this video?

[@JamesCF10]

Yeah, Eibach Pros, but I took the videos before I moved the car after having it up in the air. It took a sec to settle back to where it normally is (check my IG to see how it’s sitting)

[@Fleed72]

You need it geometrically alligned... No one mentions that in their videos

[@JamesCF10]

Good shout!

[@SILKY_999]

You don’t confirmed that with awesome gti in Manchester

[@Fleed72]

@@SILKY_999 ???

[@SILKY_999]

@@Fleed72 if your vehicle has been recently geometrically aligned already and you put spacers on then it’s fine because spacers don’t knock the tracking out

[@omarf2406]

Never stick your legs (or any other body part for that matter) underneath your car when putting your wheels on/off.

[@JamesCF10]

haha very good advice to be fair

Not officially, just very very busy with work
