Hi

I have a MKII 8V which is on 9X16 on each corner!

I get a fair bit of scrubbing on the rear, fronts aren't too bad.  

The cars booked into a body shop to get the arches sorted out on the 21st.  I'm getting the arches from VW direct (does anyone know somewhere cheaper?).  They say they'll cut away or flatten anything that needs to be sorted then bond the arches onto the body.  Then i can go lower again.

Hope that helps!  I'll let you know what happens when i get it back!

siliconed my mates g60 arches on with large rivets on the bottom. used an angle grinder to get rid of any fouling on the arch + on the arches themselves. I'd be wary about using spacers unless you get proper ones likethe eibach ones with the corect bolts, otherwise can be very dangerous, i know, my wheel came off on a b road, bloody nightmare it turned out to be.
mates car has been dropped 60mm on koni coilovers.

After much consideration about which set of wheels to leave on the car i've decided to go for the Brocks in 9 X 16 so the car will be in to the body shop next week to have G60's put on and most of the metal taken away!  I'll let you know how i get on!

Cheers
