UK-POLOS.NET - THE VW Polo Forum

hey guys...im from south africa and looking buy a polo gti, i was wondering, can i run a fitment setup of a 8 or 8.5j in the front and 9j in the rear with some camber, the wheels will be 16" ET30 cheers

with the right tyres yes!

the question is if you will be low enough at the back;that is very hard to achieve on a 9n3!

Coilovers are needed

You might need to stretch 195s in front as my 205s on 7.5s et38 are rubbing

Yuup 1st thing im buying is a set of coils any ideas on how much negative camber i can/need to run on the rears?

which wheels you getting?some 3piece ones?

I even think you won't need camber shims if the ET is 30

trust me with et30 u wont need to do anything, but 9 on the rear could be a bit hard,but it should fit the et has to be 30 otherwise it wont fit,or u could put a 25et on the rear with the 9's and leave the et30 on the front

thanks for the advice fellas... looking at a set of image wheels, namely these but in 16's so i can have moar lows , image says they can custom make the wheels so im sure i can get em done with an ET30 offset

if i was u id get the tomason or the keskin

They're gorgeous. Custom made will be very very expensive though

tehy are nice really german style with the really tight tyre

I had a look a keskin before i saw the Image wheel, still undecided as the keskin is cheaper but i love the look of the image wheels

ive just mounted yesterday 18" tomason tn4 on my gti
