I would imagine you'll catch.

I'm on BBS VZ, 18x8 et44, 225 40, and they're a nice fit. Down 30mm on H&R. Close to flush but enough room to avoid issues.

Those reps will poke a good 12mm more. Plus, they're reps. They could be fine (quality wise) but they're just as likely to be crap and heavy.

You can get genuine BBS VZ (same design as CH, Pescara) new for a shade over 600 quid.

Kind of pointless saving a tiny bit of money and ending up with something that probably doesn't do the job.

Just liked the look at the 9" as they have a slight concave to them. I have seen them on rears of s mk5 and look ok but only 8" on front didnt know if the 9" would just miss the arch
