I have recently got myself a B5 1.8T as a daily (always been an aircool guy until now as need something reliable) and have dropped it a fair way on the front. I never measured it before i started but now measures 315mm from the centre of the hub to the wheel arch.
My problem is that now i have slammed it the wheels scrap the front arches if i turn the wheels and hit any kind of bump. The wheels are 17" ET41 with 235/45/17 and are 8J wide.
I was just wondering what tyre sizes others run with what drop without scraping?
This is so bad I have had to put the standard wheel back on as was taking chunks out of the tyres
Also how come the b5.5 have a different wheel offset to the b5 do they not have the same running gear?
Cheers
