Depends on your suspension set up? I'm on air and have the same spec wheels. When driving around at normal height I've never rubbed. When aired out I can lay frame tucking the wheels all round with no arch work.

I've ran this spec on a fair few wheels and never rubbed. Adding a slight bit of stretch helps with clearance but you'll be fine.

As long as you use 225 tyres you'll be fine

I'm running standard GT TDi Suspension.

How do you mean add little extra stretch??

Will these sit just inside the arches? if I dropped it down a little
