hey, i got a mk3 squareback and i am on the alloy wheel hunt, still, i have been told by a helpful member on here that i need 4x100 and an et38 for 13" ALLOYS.

can i fit 14" alloys, does anyone have 14" alloys on their squareback, anyone know if they will rub or scratch the arches.

any help appreciated, dan.

cheerssssss.

I reckon you'll be fine as long as your tyre profile is low enough.

4 x 100 PCD applies to all the wheels, whether they are 13", 14" or 15". If you went 14" a higher offset might help slightly with the rear arches, something around ET45.

I have 165/60/14 tyres on 14x6 (et38) alloys on my mk3 squareback GT and it only rubs when fully loaded as the arches are not rolled.
