The inner position is what give the steering feel and feedback and tire scrub
8" with ET39 moves the wheel 6mm away from the strut - probably not a big deal
On the outside - I would expect you to be just outside the guard
8" with Et39 will be 6mm wider than mine which are only just level with the edge of the guard2012.1 Skoda Octavia VRS DSG Wagon - Carbonio cold air intake and pipe - HPA Motorsports BBK 355mm rotors 6 pot calipers

Damn, it was hoping it would just be flush with the edge. 6mm would be noticeable visually2012 Yeti 77TSI, Candy White

Hmmm I'm concerned that having car at stock height the tyre tread would help make it look like the wheels poke even more.
Sorry to hijack OP's thread. My situation is completely opposite of scrubbing. Will make a new thread when I figure out the wheels2012 Yeti 77TSI, Candy White
