wheels and spacers help!
« on: 12 April 2009, 21:08 »
hey all just a quick question,

found some wheels that i want to put on my mk3 golf gti but what i want is for the wheels to be slightly sticking out of the arch, ive seen golf mk3s with 9.5 on the rear with spacers and they sit really well but the problem is that the wheels i want to fit come in the widest at 7.5 and i would assume that a spacer that big would mean the nuts wouldnt fit!

can anyone shine any light????

cheers :smiley:

Wheels sticking out of the arch is illegal however spacers will come with longer bolts.
