What are the laws with stance

[DUBY]

Guys

As you may or may not know I could be taking my mk2 over with me but I will be making some changes in the uk so that I can pass your road tests.

My question is " whats the rules out there with regards to wheel poke and tyre stretch" for example the rules in the ul state that the treaded part of the tyre must be under an arch.

In advance

Many thanks

The wheels and tires cannot exist outside the guard, so poke is out, legally anyway

put on some corrado 15" steelies and say you've got 5 spare wheels ( wide ass poke stretch tuck wheels ).

I reckon they will can you as the front section is way to close to the road, you may be lucky but I doubt it.
Adjustable coilovers?? Wind them up and get it passed, ten drop it again mate.

as everyone said, poke is illegal, so is mounting wrong sized tyres on wide rims, so no HUGE stretch either....

Andrew has a good point, minimum ground clearance is 100mm from the road surface to any part of the vehicle chassis.

Pretty sure that rule holds for most States in Oz.

I'd say your a lot more likely to have the sump off down here than in London. I cringe often in all three of my standard suspension vehicles.

Defo get yourself into vw for some 15inch steelies and 195/50s, you'll have no problems with them.

Factory big wheels on some MK5GTIs mean you have to get some poxy little extensions added to make them legal.
