Peeeeps!!

I need advice!!!

BBS 17inch rims 2 piece, with Pirelli PZero 205/40/17 tyres!!

To fit on a 1.4TDi Polo, X reg, and its been lowered 40mm drop, same as the GTI model...(i think)

I got a feeling it will rub on the arches....

Gimme some feedback on what you think and how i can get around it if it did rub on the arches.

It will rub if you have more than 3 people in car.. Mines is lowered 50mm and i have slight arch work and my car still rubs when going on a bumpy road and there are more than 3 people.

Rubs all the time when cars fully loaded

Yea, i have already got the alloys na refurbed the outer lip. theres a pic on ebay of similar ones.

i put 40mm PI springs.

will it only rub when going over bumps? or will it rub all the time?
