Noz Posted May 9, 2012 Share Posted May 9, 2012 Just thought I'd ask. I was surprisingly gutted when I saw I only have 7.5J on the fronts, and with the current offset (can't find it on the wheel at the moment) they are miles away from the wing. Thought I'd ask what you lot are running with stock or wide bodies Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DodgyRog Posted May 9, 2012 Share Posted May 9, 2012 (edited) 8.5j and a big spacer for the time being;) I think 8.5j front and 10j rear are seen as the general sizes, waits to get shot down in flames:hunter: Edited May 9, 2012 by DodgyRog (see edit history) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Colin-mkiv Posted May 9, 2012 Share Posted May 9, 2012 iirc, I have ET35 19x10 rear with 275/30 tyres and a 5mm spacer, fronts are ET35 19x9 with 235/35's also with 5mm spacers. Rears caught ever so slightly. So I took 10mm off the arch lips and resealed and painted to prevent corrosion etc. Fronts touch the arch liners on the fullest of lock both directions, but on very slightly so have just left that as is. Front will be lowered on Friday with -30mm springs that are intended for a TT, so I am expecting a 20mm drop due to all of the extra weight a TT has ie turbos, intercooler, aircon etc etc. (I have removed my aircon). Also plan to fit a TT arb to stiffen things up further in the front. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

merckx Posted May 10, 2012 Share Posted May 10, 2012 You don't need wide wheels/tyres on the front other than to make it aesthetically pleasing. But 7.5" is a little narrow. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Noz Posted May 10, 2012 Author Share Posted May 10, 2012 Holy shizzle, I have the smallest wheels going. Maybe I should just put some steel wheels on and be done with it. I think the hunt for new wheels is on. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Noz Posted May 10, 2012 Author Share Posted May 10, 2012 So whats the widest that can go under a stock front arch? Looking like 9.5J is typical. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dandan Posted May 10, 2012 Share Posted May 10, 2012 So whats the widest that can go under a stock front arch? Looking like 9.5J is typical. I had to roll my front arches in order to get 255/35/18 tyres on the 9.5" with the 30 offset. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
