15" rims dont fit onto my 16v GTI??

wtf i got the standard 16s on there atm and its fine but my 15" wolfrace octane 2007 wont fit?? the brakes are too big ...would spacers work? i dont want to buy them and for them not to work ..and what size would i need?

koz.

lol.. yeh thats the big brakes.. my 15's just clear.. depends on what 15's i think.. compamotives and such seem to be able to clear just...

hes a pic to celebrate me having 15's

I think its a blessing!

Why do you want to downgrade and fit 15" chav wheels to it?

 

[Dolly_Gti]

fit 256mm brakes lol... agree about the chav wheel comment

15" superleggeras fit over 280's

all down to the make and design of wheels

I've got a set of 256mm brakes, i'll swap for your 280mm set up

 

[Dolly_Gti]

i got some 280mm lying around but im contemplating a mk2 golf project car hmmm. hikacked.... how much are callipers carries hoses..new mintex discs and pads are worth as a complete set?

 

[Boi Ninja]

ahh well, looks like I can search for my new set of rims soon then. I had such nice grip with my nice new tyres and shiney rims grrrr ....well I liked it.

Chav wheels? Will look tiny as a 15" cos my 17"s dont look big really.
My whole reason for the car was that it was different from the corsa, nova saxo crew with chavy styling.

My 18" wheels cleared the brakes ok. I dont see the problem
