Title: Caddy MK3 Question
Post by: DanSN1 on 06 January 2014, 16:25

what are the widest wheels that can be fitted to a mk3 caddy (2011) without requiring rolled arches?

Depends on offset and if it's lowered.

It really depends on the offset of the wheels, if the offset is wrong then even narrow wheels could foul the suspension or poke too far.

MK3 caddy is based on MK5 golf so comparing it to a MK3 golf is pointless.
