duh... i see it now.. haha..

i think they'd be more functional if they were the other way
 
Blowing in? I'd say they're good blowing air out. Cold air is pulled in through the back center of the rotor anyways. This will pull hot air away from the brakes and components under the car. Also, anytime you can evacuate air from under the car aids in reducing lift.
 
i see.. i figured the other way around it may cool the brakes better having basically a turbine type thing blowing cool air in
 
for best brake cooling...you want the air to flow away from the wheel...which is bolted onto the rotor...which is hot. The aluminum hub of the wheel that's absorbing most of the heat from the steel disk is what needs cooled. And then add a duct from the front of the car to replenish fresh air over the area...done.
 
every stupid VW in RI is running vette wheels...the older ones like this:

I cant hate on the VW guys, some of their trends are a little funky but I like the lok of the cars. :dunno: That MKIII just needs a rusty hood. :D
