Legal Poke

[b0k1]

thanks for that ray (Y)

and another question! sorry about all these.

could someone explain brake clearance to me? i mean, if your brakes are too big for the wheel to fit, you would need to put on spacers, yes? but with just a quick google search i found out that spacers are illegal :S

thanks for the replies.

Lack of dish on low offset wide wheels usually means they're running spacers/adapters.

yeah but if they have split rims, the inner barrels would be wide hence no spacers ect

Which would mean they have high offset

Spacers are illegal unless you have it engineered. So is non-standard wheel fitment. And so is stretched tyres.

Have a gander through my photobucket, I've uploaded some wheel fitment pics on Mk3s along with their respective specs - http://s25.photobucket.com/albums/c6...Mk3%20Fitment/

Example:

16x8.5 ET26 front, 16x9 ET11 rear.

Lack of dish on low offset wide wheels usually means they're running spacers/adapters.

I own a Mk4 and am therefore biased, but damn that Mk3 looks hot!!
