The ****? 13's fit over the 256mm brakes? I always thought they didn't.
Just a quick question guys, I tried to test fit some wheels the other day. Rears cleared just fine, but the fronts hit the calliper and looks like I'll need at-least a 10mil spacer.
Was wondering if anyone had similar spec wheels on their cars or others that can show me photos of?
Technically speaking I'm looking at 13x7 +10 up front! Too much poke? Too small rim?
Obligatory fitment pictures.
Also, I need hub adapters to run them, how much would they set me back?

Need minimum 14"
Haha that's awesome. I say do it! With an et10 should be fine. I was going to run 7 et0 with vr widetrack so I'd say you have nothing to worry about. I too am surprised it clears the rotors.
I got a 7 with a et of 20 with a 20mm spacer and I have good poke. This is on a vr too.
offset plays no part in if a wheel will clear or not...
13s on a mk3? madness!
Yes, rechecked if they fit over the rotors. They do surprisingly! Just need spacers to clear callipers and obviously extended wheels studs and centre bore adapters.
Any idea where I can source some?
Fleabay!
I'm not sure where the best place to buy them is but I recommend putting some on the rears to keep it even.
Measure the centrebore accurately and have the hub-centric rings custom-made. Hub Rings / Spigot rings for wheels 4,75 are helpful, but they're based overseas so won't get here super quick. Spacers and extended wheel bolts, yeah some eBay vendors have them. You'd want them hub-centric and wheel-centric too.
