Title: Getting some new Wheels!
Post by: tigerj360 on 08 May 2012, 15:18
Hi guys

Thinking about buying these wheels: http://www.golfgtiforum.co.uk/index.php?topic=230670.0

Will i need any spacers for these to fit at all? Also what are the best size tyres to get?

Thanks! Jon

They should be a straight fit, very nice choice  :wink:

225/40/18 ideally or 215/40/18 if you want a bit of stretch...

A bit of stretch sounds good as i'm going to be lowering her this month to!  :cool:

225/40/18's is the best choice.

Thanks Wayne, will I get any rub with coilovers? Spacers needed once dropped?  :smiley:
