Hi all. Just about to put a lovely set of polished BBS RM's 7x15 on my mk2. Will I need to fit some G60 arches? Are the wheels going to stick out past my current 8v's arches? Cheers.

Almost certainly not, although would depend on the offset of the wheels!

shouldnt be a problem, ive got 7x15's on an ET13 on mine, problem is they do rub!
If your going low you may want to look at rolling the arches if you go with ET25's.
