17" x 7.5

Recommended Posts

Hi all my first post on the forum i recently picked up a very nice C valver after selling my mk2 gti been into dubs for

along time and originally planned to get a G60 or VR6 but the car was just to good to miss and a cracking price.

 

So anyway i have the chance to pick up some BBS rx wheels which are 17" x 7.5 im hoping these will fill out the arches

nicely but are they going to scrub on a normal suspension setup, i plan to drop the car on coiler`s at a later stage very

nice rims and at a good price, apologies for not searching sure all the info i need is on here.

 

cheers for any info

Rob

Im on coilies dropped around 50mm ish on the same size wheel your after, 215 x 40 tyres and no scrubbage, even with 4 larger people in and the stereo in the boot.

 

Only very slight scrub on full lock but then how much do you use that.
