New shoes

Welcome to Teufel's wonderful world of new Porsche Turbo Twists! My baby's new kicks are so pretty. He's a lucky little VW. I don't spend that much money on couture shoes for myself. But he deserves it. We've been through 66,000-plus, long miles together -- from daily Merritt Parkway traffic hell to fun in more than a foot of snow in a Connecticut blizzard to racing around the twisties of Bear Mountain in New York -- my R32 is the best car I've ever had, and he's my sixth.
So finally after more than a month of waiting Teufel has his Turbo Twists from Raderwerks. Special thanks to Russ for making sure every wheel, tire and adapter made it here in tip-top shape. Raderwerks rocks, and their wheels are amazing. I'm so happy!
Special note: These photos were taken right after they were installed, so the car is a bit dirty, and the tires aren't cleaned up. I promise I went home and washed the car right after this, but I was too hot and tired to take photos. There will be better photos coming soon, and definitely ones where the WIDE rears are visible.
We got the wheels installed at Sleepers, of course. At first, the wheel gap was pretty bad, especially in the rear. It was like R32 4x4. But after driving home, the wheels are settling in and the gap isn't too bad, but of course I'd like a suspension upgrade so I can go a little bit lower. (Igor -- early happy birthday to me?? Please?) Either way, the wheels look sweet. Now that I have my Turbo Twists, I'm one step closer to living the dream (having my own Porsche). Ahh, someday. For now, I'm happy with Teufel and his sexy new shoes. We'll be rolling up to Worcester, Mass., tomorrow for Broke Down. Teufel says he hopes to see you there!
