[mk3 moe]

how do i get 17" alloys on a mk2/3 cos i tried on both and they keep rybbing on both. do i have to cut the wheel arches or wot?

[kniterider]

think you need your arches rollin!!!!

[mk3 moe]

wot does that mean?

they bolt a special roller on your wheel hubs (with the wheel off) and carefuly stretch the arches so that your wheels dont rub.

Think thats the way.

If you do want to get them done. Try http://www.styledynamix.co.uk/. They do them for ?40 per corner.

got 17" vodoo on golf gti mk 2 8v with a magnex back box (which is massive) and lowered 35mm and dont get no rubbing, even with 2 adults in back of car.

I rolled mine with a hammer, just stuck the plastic arches on again afterwards after some trimming of the plastic. Now it doesnt rub

has the paint cracked after you did that lowgolf? In for some serious rusting

I painted around the arch with underseal before i stuck it back on. No chance of rusing through that, its like painting tarmac

Got it quite low aswell
