Just measured my wheel arches and reckon i could get away with 20mm either side however im thinking just in case 10-15 either side and i will be happy.

Does anyone know the difference between these 2? Both have the same DR16mm so guessing thats 16 either side? The only difference i can see is that the first one say min ofset 13?

Your wheel will have an offset of probably 35 so i wouldnt worry to much about that.

Someone will know more than me though  :grin:

Just measured it up again this time front and back lol :grin:

They are different never knew that lol :embarassed:

So now im going to go for 16mm either side on rear and 5-10mm on front prob go 5mm.

Once i get them fitted im guessing it would be wise to get them aligned?

Will 16 on rear and 5 on front be ok?

 :undecided: :undecided: :undecided:

edit: sorry going back to the 16mm ones? Do i order the cheaper ones which say min offset 13 or do i have to go for the slighty more expensive ones which dont mention offset or will it make no difference lol

as the front is already 10mm more than the back as standard on the mk4 i have gone for 5mm on the front and 15mm on the back thus bringing the rear inline with the front but still sat at a nice stance and legal lol but wheel is just inside the arch so looks pretty much what i was after so many choices mate good luck im sure what ever you get will look fab  :cool:


 i drive a golf thats why im skint!!!!
