I think you may experience some issues if you wanted the car low? But it would also depend on your tyre width choice.

This gti was running a set of 7J's which were I assume et32:
yeh i'm planning on getting a healthy slam later (would be very rude not to!),

I know of a few that have run 8s on the front and more on the rear! So will have to get in contact With them i think and see what they say about any modifications needed, cheers for the pic

cheers,
Got a bit of rubbing. I've had no archwork done though.

But an offset of around 25 should be better. The only reason i've got rubbing is because of the low offset of 20. I think 25 should sit just flush with the arch with an 8" rim.

cheers mate,

(If all goes ahead) they'll be on before i'm lowered, so can have a drive about on them and check to see whether i reckon i'll need the arches rolled and plastic removed or not
