LazyLunatic got Borbet 16x9's, and as far as I know, he hasn't done any "serious" arch work...

Actually, I don't think you will need any work at all, if it's standard height.

LL are a better ofset, et15 will need work even with standard height.

i know its a photoshop job but i want it to sit a bit like this...


Like those side skirts!

If you want to leave the standard gti plastic arch covers on you will have problems.
The car in this pic looks to have had the inner arches removed as well.
