yeah it is mk5 rs2k the car is on konis with 25mm lowering never thought about having to roll the arches but there is no way they can be done now as after fitting the new rear quarters we made sure there would be no water able to get in by joing the inner and out skins and sealing it all, so if rolling is required for 17's looks like itll have to be 16's (

17's fit easily, just stick to a 7x17 et38 they should miss with a 205 tyre

and as yours is only 25mm lowered they should be fine mines -35mm
