Haha I said I don't "think" they can got told they can't because of the lips that hold the arch on at the rear , front your might be able to but then the risk of cracking paint
Ah ok i see, right well the rears cant be rolled, there isnt anything to roll really, you may be able to put a slight flare on them, but the rears are wide enough anyway, the fronts can be rolled as they have a lip. but as Dan said you run the risk of cracking the paint. For 9j on the front i would say your gonna have to roll the arched but im not 100% may have to wait until i have my X5s fitted to find out, mind you i had them on today at the fronts and had them running flush, pics are in my other thread
Sound mate nice one!! Been looking into people who do arch rolling, think I might leave this till I've got enought to do paint patch ups I had planned plus possible arch wear!! Was also thinking instead of Rolling the arches as much as poss I could also get some copa wings and tone them down?!
Haha good luck ...... Lcr bumper wings cutting the Lcr bumper up smoothing filling etc hope you know some one that will do it cheap
i wouldnt bother i have just found a golf running 9.75j on standard arches lol, you will be ok, just get them on the car
Belseys blue mk4 ?
Golfs have more of a flared arch they will fit just will poke and your need a stretch

Yes they look flared but if you look at the dimensions of a golf. They measure up about 8mm narrower in the arch to arch width.
And yes I forgot that some of his pics have your Leon in. Still think the rotas look totally awesome.
lol gutted, got a quote for both front arches rolled and new lining for £100. Sounds good just gotta way up my options before I go for it. You reckon I'll get about 15mm?
I would say borrow mine but you live miles away I have a few sets of spacers just to try wheels out etc
Just a quick update on this to say I've decided to try and sell the wheels and get something that will fit more easily I think. I think these wheels would look amazing but I'd need a lot of arch work doing and I don't really fancy stretching tyres that much.. 
Look like the long hard sell begins!
