They'll never fit, unless you have an early Kamei wide body kit. 

The most (I think) you can fit on a mk1 is 2.5" making them 8" all round.  Have a nosey on wheelwhores as there is bound to be someone who has more info on there.

Hi Lewy Sorry i didnt mention that i have a mk2 16v that these are going on, im not planning to put them on my rivage! 

ive seen some people run 10J with G60 arches so maybe thats the way forward? i know with 5" dish they would stick out a little but maybe just for a set of show wheels? what do ya think?

Anyone know of any pics of 10J bbs rms?

Cheers Harry

Also this is my old Oak Green 16v with std GTi arches and 8" RM's to show you how hard pushed you'll be to try and tuck another 2" under there, as the G60 arches are only 7mm wider!  :shocked:
