so if the offset is 37 on the new wheels- does that mean they are closer to the arches?  How close??  If I can get a 10mm adapter (which I think is too thin) that would then make a total size of 27??  Would that still fit under the arches???

you need the thinest adapters possible

27 would be seriously close and would cause problems

ive been told 30 is the max on a mk4 golf     but what you have to look at is how stiff ur shocks are    how low are you  there are many things that can affect this while you just pottering around town an then you hit a bump an cya  Mr arch's

an you look a twit in front of the fit bird waiting for her taxi outside your local tesco's    aint a gd look really

SH!T So I don't actually think I can buy these wheels then- as the offset is 37, and they are 5x112 so will need adapters for sure- and I think the minimum is 15mm  SH!T NNOOO!!!  I'm gutted, truly gutted.

Turns our H&R dont do a 15mm 5x112-5x100 adapter anyway as they're too thin.  And from what I have read, they are the company to trust with adapters- so can't get these wheels now. its back to the good old internet searching yet again for more wheels!  :cry: :cry: :cry:
