Schwaben products are characterized by simple, clever designs. Their wheel storage solutions may be the best examples of these qualities. The Schwaben Wheel Tree holds up to 275lbs and allows you to safely stack your wheels without the risk of scuffing and scratching. Convenient locking casters allow you to easily move the whole set anywhere in your garage or shop at one time.

Check these out: we have OE diverter valves for your 1.8T or 2.7T Audi. Keep your boost inside the intake where it belongs, and cure common driveability concerns with this stronger, more durable VW/Audi valve, suitable for stock or mildly tuned cars. Diverter valves live in a tough neighborhood. By definition, they limit turbo boost, and most eventually fail due to a pin hole or tear in the valve diphragm. Symptoms vary, but commonly include rough idle, a loss of power, or an illuminated check engine light. Easy to install, you'll need one sooner or later, so be prepared.

Function aside, the flush mount stems come in aluminum or black oxide to fit a wide range of wheels for a look that gets you noticed.
