    Columba's, directional?

    while i was looking for info for the "difference between Columba's & Perfo's" thread i noticed it had a part number for left & another for right. So after looking more into the separate part numbers came across these pics. Can't say i've noticed any T-5's having sided rims tho

    Hmmm who'd have thunk it... Or thunk about it for that matter. Interesting that they actually bothered making them handed at all.
    19t, greens, 3" inlet, 3" downpipe with race cat, V70R catback, autotech map...

    310.2bhp / 333ft/lb

    thats just it, i can't say i've ever seen a T-5 with sided wheels. The fan design must have a big effect on brake cooling so directional does make sense so both sides are equally cooled

    I remember some of the mondeos had a problem with pulling to the left when breaking from high speed. Propeller-type alloys were suspected but never proven. They weren't handed.
