Default ET20/25 wheel on esco mk4?

Hi guys.

I got my hands on a set og compomotives cheap 15" and et20. My friend agreed to skim Them to ET25.

I just wantes to hear if they can fit without poking out? They are 7" wide.


Cheers!

I am not sure how much arch room MkIVs have with arches but I would say that you are close to them rubbing, especially at that width.

On my S1 with stock wheels the arch lips (well the plastic) rubbed when the front wheels had 5mm spacers up front with a slightly wider than stock 195 tyres (track tyres are slightly wider).

Bet the person in the back is really comfy, did you at least leave the seat base in?!
