    Car: Bora FWD 2lt
    Front: 18x8 ET24 215/35/18 Nankang NS20
    Rear: 18x9 ET31 225/35/18 Nankang NS20
    Arch height to ground Front: 22"
    Arch height to ground Rear: 22"
    Fenders Rolled: Front only
    Fenders Pulled: No
    Camber: Front No / 1deg extra in rear

    front is sunken a little so when the car is raised up the tread sits inside the guard still.
    Currently stuck on the driveshaft on the drivers side and control arm/subframe joint on the passenger so thats why it sat so high/wonky in the front.
    tyres are super undersized and would avoid on most mk4s due to load rating and speedo being way out.
    ill get some better pics later.

    While I like them and they achieved the 'bling' look I was after while being fitted/fat/real. I feel they also give the 20" chromie vibe from some angles... which freaks me out. I seem to be the only one that sees it though?
    Might continue to confuse the hell out of people for a while while im doing the rest of the work to the car, then move on in a month or so.

    you have seen the wheels, but a few things have changed.
    More lows, different adapter in the front, different brand rubber in the back
    Sills are level (which I hate, but until I can get the front lower ill continue to confuse people with just the rear when the car is left aired out in public
