things is matey.... u can lower the profile  but only so much. because you put your speedo out. then u have the problem of finding the tyres... very few ppl do low profiles for 14" wheels and the ones that do charge an absolute fortune... to be fair ur better of buying 15's anyway thats what golfs are made to sit on and they set em right off you can also get a lot lower profile for them for a lot cheaper... i only know cuz i tried myself then decided it was a waste of cash and got some 15's instead
