    if getting 20mm for the rear, maybe get something for the front too. otherwise itll be super obvious that there is spacers in the rear.
    I personally think 5-10mm is the max offset stagger on mk4s for visual reasons

    but each to his own
    I've had a few friends use the ones that require two sets of bolts and they didnt have a good experience with them haha
    I'd rather just have a set of strong longer bolts holding the wheel on and thats it to be honest.

    One of the drift drivers I know uses the same design spacer on his car and it takes an absolute beating with no problem at all, so being confident with that



    I still have no idea what size I should go, I know 20mm will push the rim out to be just under the guard, and I do have KW's in there so I can adjust them if i need too

    Yeah sure - I have ET 35 wheels 18x8 and 20mm spacers on the rear (none on the front) and mine look like this.

    I'd recommend the H&R hubcentric spacers and some longer bolts from ECS, they cost more but are worth it.
