Sold then off as they were too low and bought a H&R springs and roll kit instead

@r5gtt Widening the rear axle might be better looking but we have FWD that handle much better with a wider front axle. That just increased the understeer of your GTI.

thanks mate I'll be putting the front ones on soon enough

If you fit equal spacers at the front your wheels will be ET35 (ET51 -> ET35). Are you sure they won't rub the front wings then?

I recall asking about spacers 20mm rear and 15mm front well over a year ago in a discussion and was told it should be okay with my R32 phase 1 alloys ET51 and lowered 
I definitely need spacers for the front when I get the BBK on but not sure on how wide people go?.

I had 8" wheels on my old MK5 which were ET35 and it was lowered over 40mm. you will need to roll the front arches if you don't want any rubbing.

roght is better get the garage to roll them up before they paint the front end so more costs involved

Guys...... You're all missing the point that R5's R32 wheels are 7.5" wide. No issues whatsoever spacing these by 15/16mm.

At least I THINK they're 7.5".....

Someone will confirm it, I'm sure

They're 7,5'' wide, yes. They'll poke out 3,7 mm more than mine. They can rub under hard cornering.

[r5gtt]

ET51 7.5 wide lol

I am a little worried AJP as the H&R might me close when fitted 

Can't remember what drop they are now so will have to ask the seller m
