whats the widest wheel i can fit on a mk2 with standard rolled arches ?

 

how are rolled arched standard?

depends on there ET, how much your arches are rolled, how low it is,

etc etc...

Will you be running arch trims or not???

You will be able to fit an 8x15 ET 15 with little problem with rolled arch's, best to have arch trims on though to keep the wheel inside the arch line.

 

Depends how low, I`m running et 20 7x15`s low-ish (60-70mm) with rolled arches on coilies with no problems 195/50 tyres 205`s scrubbed.

 

aye sorry, i ment standard arches as in no trim, just rolled. cheers peeps

 

depends on the offset, i think David H is running 8" under rolled arches with no problems, and his car is on the deck

 

i have et25 and 7 inch 15's they rub a little, its lower 40mm too

i need to get my scissors out

 

I have 7x15 et 28 with 195/50/15, lowered around 60mm. Mine only rub when cornering really hard on bumpy roads.

 

anyone have any pics of david H's car ? i want some FK coilies so wanna go as low as i can without too much scrubbage.

 

I'm running 7x15 195/50's, et25. Lowered 60mm and there is no rubbing,ever.

 

david Hs car

 

cheers chris

 

As requested few pics, 8x15" with a 120mm drop, no bullsh1t. No rubbing, only way to do this is build the car around the bodywork. You can't just bolt wide wheels on!! Arches have had a lot of work inside but are basically standard.
