    Yea, the 18in wheels have about an inch or so to the front brake caliper.
    Ill keep an eye out and see what I can find.
    I might measure the distance from the centre line of the Hub to the brake caliper.

    Ask at BriSkoda.

    17" should fit on the 330mm (??) fronts. I know for a fact that 16" fit on the old 312mm fronts of the Mk2 vRS.
