        • Very nice mate - I hope you get them to fit all ok.

          Ps. Hook us up with some linkage as to where you got them from...

                    • Dam will u still be running the GTI arch trims bcuz if u r not its easy as to roll the lips on the front and rear guards... My ol man did it to stop his 13x7's rubbing

                      Comment


                      • cheers for the awesome feedback it really makes this project worth while

                        well

                        i had 17x7's on there to begin with and the guards were rolled previously

                        im running 16x7 with ET35 and toyo T1R 195/45 R16 tyres

                        i cant bring the back out anymore as you can see in the pictures my tyre is well under whe wheel well and will definetly rub

                        also i am not sure if i will be running guard flares or not... any suggestions and opinions??
                        if i run the flares i will run the gti sidestripes aswell

                        if not i will go flare-less... no gti side stripes but side moulding

                        ohh BTW rayray if your reading this i just recieved the black/gold BBS caps they look yummy!!!!

                        gotta wait for the other style bbs caps now!!

                        hehe

                        • No trim = Clean look
                          Trim = Classic look

                            It doesn't make any difference whether the trim's are fitted or not when your rolling the wheel arches.

                            Just mean's you've got to take them off to roll the lips & then trim the arch trims back.

                            Also with the trim's fitted you don't have be as careful with the paint. Get's covered up.




                            Looking bloody awesome Dom. Plenty of room left in the arches to.

                            With a 35 offset you shouldn't have any scrubbing issue's ever, unless it's belly scrapping!!

                            Can't wait to see more progress on this build
