I am lookin to get 17's on my mk4 and would like to know the followin questions:

How much work needs to be done on the arches?

Would it be possible for me to do the work myself? (baring in mind i dont know an awful lot about cars)

What would be the cost in a garage to get it done if unable to do myself if anyone who has 17s has done it this way?

Your help will be much appreciated!

Andy
