lookin at putting 17"s on my arosa (Got 15/195/45 on at the mo) but the rear wheel clerance looks like it my be a problem, 17"s may catch the arch, help please?
I don't know about clearance as I have not seen an Arosa on 17's, but it WILL drive like a pig!
I had 17's on my Ibiza and took them off due to the reduce ride quality and poorer handling. God knows what it would be like on the smaller Arosa :eek:

Members on www.seatowners.co.uk may have a better idea about what will happen with rubbing & handling

16's may be an option worth considering - Bill Brockbank (ibizacupra) was running a set of Ibiza 20vT 6jx16 wheels on his wife's Lupo for a while - perhaps he could offer some advice?
The TSR project Arosa ran Oz Super T's in 7x17 I think and was lowered on Eibach springs, worth a bell to them perhaps.
