17's don't catch depending on the width and how much you've lowered the suspension by. i've got 17's with a 7" width on mine and they didn't catch at all standard. i dropped the rear by 120 mil and the front by 70 mil but for both have had to take the arch liners out and with the rear i had to roll the inner lip back

They're 7.5 width, and i havent lowered my car... but it looks quite low... :blink: Duno if previous owner has lowered it :confused: its an SXE and got standard Seat alloys on there... Also what about the cracked rim isit worth getting repaired..? go on ebay and type that -> 17'' Toora Formula Alloy Wheels 4 Off 4X100 Pcd ET 35

i personally wouldn't touch any cracked, broken rims.you could probs repair them but there will always be a weakness there and i woulnd't trust my cars weakness to be on the one bit of the car that touches the ground and controls so much

i dont really want them that bad because they dont have tyres and because of that crack... and also i reeeeeeeaaaaally want a set of either mk3 cupra or the multi spoke mk2 cupra ronals... but i cant find any... :(

Saw a set of 15'' OZ turbos in white go for £112 on ebay last week.

They were listed very wrong and the winning bidder got a BARGAIN !!!!!

I've got 17's on mine and its quite civilised compared to what i've had in the past... running 205/40's but its low so does catch on front on full lock but thats it.

Going to try 195/40's next :D But Sticking with 17's as it looks Ace :D
