RH zw1's with LCR brembo's?
« on: 07 May 2011, 20:24 »
Ok, so I ditched the idea of the zender wheels.
I'm now looking to get a set of RH zw1 wheels, I'm just going to go for 17's though as the Irish roads aren't best suited to 18's on a mk4!
I'm running a set of LCR brembo's with 323mm discs,
My question is, will a set of 8.5x17 zw1's with 225/45/17 tyres fit over the brakes and work without problem's?
They are ET33 when using 20mm 5x112-5x100 adapters.
I've looked at the wheel offset calculator and it tell's me that this setup will have 14mm less inner clearance, but have 12mm extra outer position, which I like!
Can anyone tell me if this will work, as I'm not really sure how to figure it out myself!!
Thanks!

That is going to be tight on 17", 312mm is tight enough under 17"  :undecided:

I'm running 17's at the moment, but the s3 wheels have loads of room under them!
