I've got a couple of others I was going to try on it ;)

I think the early pan thing is all played

Stupid idea anyone doing that shit :roll:

I doubt anything wider than a 7 is gonna fit on the front without spacers :x

I hate cars
Spacers are a-okay!

I use http://www.willtheyfit.com to work out what fits and what doesn't.

Late model Porsche wheels usually have pretty conservative offsets, so they need pretty thick adapters. I have 45mm adapters on the back of the Golf for example. :shock:

Problem is that on the beetle you're running out of the gaurd

And because they're plastic I can't even roll the lips

I'll make it work believe me

I was just shitty the other night

It could've been so easy.............but it had to be a bitch :evil:

So finally got around to fitting up the lows and wheels

Not happy with the look 17s are way too small

Too much acreage between tyres n lip of guards.

Can't go much lower, I hit a cats eye on the dog bone yesterday :lol:

I can get 20s under it, problem is width

I need a 20 or 19 would be better x 7 with just the right offset

I'll wait fir something cool to some along ;)

what if you go up a tyre profile or :roll: two ?

i know its not ideal, but it might fill the gap a bit more

Yeah already discussed that

It's the wheels look puny, and I'm not a real fan of BRMs on late model shit anyway

Yeah those rear wheels could do with a bit of dish in them.
