Exactly my point wen I called the place and they told me about them, i said they might want to send out a sheet that tells me that you had to prize it off. ill get some pics put up when im back at work on monday.

That is some major camber adjustment going on with those wide wheels

How on earth is he running 10.5 on the front?

Air ride and pulled / rolled arches for sure?

The colour coded spacer doesn't sound too clever. Have you got any pics.

The closest rim I've seen that works is probably a Bentley one at 9j and Et41. That sits flush at the front.



Standard archwork

I'd love to see a build thread for this as those arches don't look standard to me. There isn't any definition over the arch. It's clearly pulled. Good effort to get them on though.

I'm quite enjoying this.

This guy is running 4 degrees of rear camber with 10's at the back. Awesome pics

10.5 on the front of a Mk5 is not possible without archwork. A 9.5 et41 just fits..you have about a half an inch to the fender with a 205 tyre, and a 9.5 et47 hits the strut!
