Do they have a web address mate?

Ive found some 7x15 ATS Cups ET20 but people are saying they may look to small on my golf? Do you think this is true.

Does anybody have any examples of golfs of 7x15s ATS Cups please?

I suppose with a suitable drop? No idea how much! it would look ok?

Here u go http://www.gpcvwaudi.com/

As for the ammount to drop the car, 15's are fine on say a 40mm drop - that's what I've got and you can see the result in my sig. Sure it's nice to have massive 17's but they really don't suit a mk2 if u wanna keep the handling and performance as it's intended to be.

I've got a diamond cut pair of porsche design 90's on the way http://217.207.109.245/stuff/design90.jpg

Silver cars are the nuts  :grin:

They do look nice, but the lip is to small.... Im guessing there Et28s?

Ive found some new ATS Cups ET20s for ?300 without tyres.

Styledynamic do them for ?555 with toyos, but thats too much.

So say i drop my car 40mm Put ET20s ATS Cups 7x15, whats a good tyre size for them?

Firstly there's more to the lip size than choosing a small offset - you need to find out how wide they are. If they're still 6j wide with ET20 rather than ET28 the lip will still bel the same size - you want to find a 7 or 8j set if that's possible.

If you end up with a standard 6j set (I think 6 is standard might be 7j ??) then something like 195 50 15's are fine. Nice selection of manufacturers to choose from and a sensible price - sure u could go down to 45 profile, but less of the arch will be filled.
