weller wheels/ stretched tyres

Post by t1mmay »

heya guys/gals im new im hopefully getting a polo coupe gt!!! yay!!!
I was thinking about putting 13" Weller wheels with stretched tyres so i can have the rims sticking out the side of the arches!!! Is this legal/safe????
Also does anyone know any measurments to use as a guide???

Yep fully legal until your tyre tread exceeds the arch. You'll probably want to be looking at 13X8s, with a tyre like 165/55? or 175/50?
