Like I say it's low! And I'm not on air!
And the front drops a bit more than that on a flat as well..

This is my issue but I have folded then and flared as much as poss and I'm still rubbing slightly on a turn with an incline!

I did see a mk6 with them at gti and it looked okay but no idea what the offset was!

Then something is wrong.  I barely rubbed at all with 18x8.5et44 and that was before I had rolled arches etc. 115/25 tyres. With the arches etc pulled and rolled then 225/40 would be fine dude


Yes mate car is on air.

Mine obviously ain't pulled enough lol!! I'm no body expert and I couldn't get them to pull any more as it was just bedding out the front of the wing!
Need new wings any way!!

Also et44 would be pushed into the arch more if I remember correctly?

Like I say above it's minimal rubbing but that's not the point! I don't want rubbing at all! Not cool!

2mm more into the arches, nothing in it really.

Just trying to understand the OP because with rolled arches that he rubs and he shouldn't that's all :)

2mm would probably be enough just about to clear on mine haha!

I have m tec discs.. It's poss that they are slightly thicker than the old ones I guess..

Also low as yours go's does it rub the right side driveshaft on the chassis it have you notched it?

Also the new top mounts are a superseded part no so don't be surprised if that f*cks with the camber :/
