18" Mags for Ibiza Cupra Mk4

[Narco]

Hi There,

I have the Mk4 Ibiza Cupra and was contemplating changing the 17" rims to a pair of 18". i have not found any that fit but saw that some of you guys had located 18" mags that do fit, i saw the golf 5 GTi mags on a Ibiza but dont dig the look.

I am looking for mags that are like the ones i have but 1 size bigger.

Does any one advise against fitting 18"s?? any rubbing or scraping against teh Calipar?

I have heard that you will get scraping with 18's, i had been keen on a pair a few years ago, and because of the scraping issues i had found i decided against it.
I instead bought a set of VRS alloys with the intention to spray them, but lots of people had the same idea so i sold them on again.

well to stop scraping you have to get the correct offset.....i dont know it but im sure someone will....

otherwise......18's fit ok - 8" wide with a 215 35 18 tyre on aslong as it's not to low !

mine catch occasionaly but i live in the sticks and it's low low low !

Rash had 18" BBS CHs on his without problems and he was running really low.

As said above. Correct wheel offset is key.

rolled arches as well though obviously, can be done right but money money ploughed into or it just looks laughable.
