Yeah Stu, a couple of times with all different offsets, no fit, to tall & hits on full lock on the inside front.
But this -2% camber.
Hooroo.

I've always ran 215/45/17. Always have and never have had any issues. I run the Cup Edition kit, so I'm not sure if that's any different, but even on the GTI kit it was fine.Anyone tried a 215/45/17
However, if you do full lock, it rubs very lightly but nothing to panic about. I hardly full lock anyway.

Too little tyre for an 8" rim, for my liking. Scored some 215/40/17 Pirelli P Zero Neros, now I just need to get the front it all aligned and they'll be on next week!

Nah, she's right mate. I feel greedy already with my BBSs sitting here doing nothing whilst the OZs are on. Thanks for the offer though.
What's next for yours?
