Got them through Demon Tweeks - they're 17 x 8s (£194.82+vat each! :shock: ; not the cheapest option.) Got the Toyo Proxes T1-R 215/40/ZR17s from them too (£73.24+vat each). They're fairly wide in the arch so the important thing was a stiff set-up and adjustable ride height. It's taken a few alterations as the new suspension settles, but I think I'm there now. Good luck with yours! :)

Went with 17" Compomotive MOs which just fit over the Brembo 4 pot calipers! Still needed 5mm spacers and the Konis as Stiff as you like! Very please with the outcome (see pics in my album).

.....and thanks Kev(Haywire)! I'll have a look at the wheels you've suggested.

Thanks Woody & Blue Joe. The discs are actually 323mm on mine! Sounds like I've a job on my hands!

I've just sourced the entire brembo brake setup from a Leon Cupra R for my VR6. Yipee! I've now got the chicken and egg problem of rim selection; I need to fit the brakes (too big for my current/original 15" alloys) and then see what'll fit!? Does anyone else have these brakes and if so what 17" alloys fit for sure? :roll:

Cheers, I will. Thanks for your help.

Thanks OSV! Given a choice, what setup (brakewise) should I opt for? do all fit without tinkering? I'd like the best performance without spending £940 on a Cupra R (brembo) kit!

Can anyone advise me please? I want to change my VR6 15" wheels for 17" RS4 style rims. I know the brake caliper clearance is a problem, and my brakes aren't great anyway, so looking to change them. I've seen that other vw calipers (such as Mk4 Golf highline?) will fit, but is this done to accomodate new rims or because they're more effective than the bulky 12 year old ones on mine? Cheers, Banzai.
