i had 3mm spacers on my old blue mk3 and still had a little issue with rubbing on the springs! so bigger than 3mm! :lol:

Dub_envy had 15" a while back on his GT and they were a very odd width! they were 15" p-slots and were something like 5-6" wide i think! he had minimal srubbage on them iirc!

mine are fine on my cl. I have 195/45/15's. Theyre the right offset though. Catch on the rear arches when I got a full car but then again it is lowered 40mm!
