offset

[Nicky]

what offset are u running on 17s, ive got the 60mm h-r cup kit and 17s, the wheels are off my old polo they were in the garage so just put them on but they are a et 35 i think and with 9mm spacers on the back, they catch like hell on all 4 corners what is the correct offset pll are running im sick of the catching so im buying some new wheels.

going round roundabouts hard it catches alot would i be better to run 16s with the 60mm kit.

Cheers Nicky

Hhmm did they do a 60mm H & R Cup Kit?

I know there is one around 30mm/40mm? and a 50mm/40mm one but didnt know they did one lower than that? Is yours springs and dampers?

There is a couple of people on here that have the H & R Cup Kit on 17" rims so they should be able to help you

ye mine is springs and shocks im sure its 50/60. if other people are running the same set up can u tell me what offset u use and if it catches at all

Im running standard suspension at the moment and even when my H & R Cup Kit is fitted i will be keeping my standard 16" rims

Speak to CupraPower as he has the H & R Cup Kit and had 17" rims but has just changed to 16" rims although i dont know the offsets

My kit is 50mm/40mm as i thought thats the lowest they made?

Sorry i cant help more

the offset should be et35 or et37 depending on alloy, had same problems as you on the back when i fitted mine, had 15mm eibach spacers, took them off and now all is SWEET !!! the wheels sit under the arch nicely

by the way i am lowered on fk highsport coilovers also

cheers 4 the info but the back is not to much of a prob as i can use smaller spacers but its the front i have team dynamic monzas and they are et 35 and catch when going round corners hard so et37-38 is my best bet then.

Any more info would be great.
