Title: Soon to fit some 7x15 BBS RM's will I need G60 arches???
Post by: HuwMk2 on 29 May 2007, 20:02

Hi all. Just about to put a lovely set of polished BBS RM's 7x15 on my mk2. Will I need to fit some G60 arches? Are the wheels going to stick out past my current 8v's arches? Cheers.

Almost certainly not, although would depend on the offset of the wheels!

but G60 arches do look phaaaat  :wink:

shouldnt be a problem, ive got 7x15's on an ET13 on mine, problem is they do rub!
If your going low you may want to look at rolling the arches if you go with ET25's.
