this is how my old car looked when it was lowered 70mm
on coilovers with 17in audi wheels 7.5 wide with no arch mods
but you must make sure et is right or you will be in trouble

Yes - but what tyre widths?

??

golfpro · « **Reply #13 on:** 11 January 2006, 15:18 »

tyres on mine are 215x40x17

Saqme size as mine then!

Maybe the et is wrong on mine. They rub not on the arch but the rear bumper when there is a load in the back!
Perhaps I need some new springs!

mines on 8x17 ,205 40 17 , coilovers and i think the et was 35
minor scrapeage on hard corners but that means its just low enough,

looking at some alloys and the tyres are 205 40 17 on the front and 205 45 17 on the rear, should they be like this?
