lowering and alloy sizes

[kuk sool]

So by my car being lowered quite abit is it fair to say that by going up from 15's to 16's that i would get alot of scrubbage!!!

mind you i dont get any scrubbage at the moment with 15's

you don't necessarily scrub when you increase your wheel size, if you decrease your tire profile appropriately.  

Not sure about older golfs, but when talking possible mk4 wheel sizes... 195/65/15's, 225/45/17's and 225/40/18's all have nearly exactly the same total diameter ( about 636 mm ).  

I'm personally not sure whether to go for the 17's or the 18's for me mk4.  What do you think??

Mines lowered 105 on 16"rims with 205/40/16's. And it doesnt rub. If you have g60 arches as well i wouldnt think it would srub at all. Mine u my suspension barely moves

the suspension on mine is lovely it doesnt move and also doesnt bang like some lowered cars ive been in when you hit a bump!!!!

im gonna go for AZEV A 16's i reckon after seeing them on two mk2 golfs so far and i think they look awesome!!! and then probably restore the old bbs's!!!
