    light weight is always a good performance option! so long as theyre strong. I have some SSR Competition rims on my MK3. Theyre about 5.5kgs each! made a big difference to the feel of the car

    Two possible problems..

    a) Adaptors are illegal in australia
    b) Do you know how far 10"s will sit outside the guard with adaptors?!

    its dependant on their offset.

    10s are huge though!? is there really that much room under the arches of a mk4?

    Offset may not be high enough! Adapters are at least 25mm wide (20mm can be made from Motorsport Tech in America, but are expensive). I'd reckon you'd need at least a good fender roll and decent tyre stretch for you to run it with minimal stretch!
