[RedVR6]

I've got ET30 7.5" on my B4 Passat and you can park a truck between the strut and the tyre. Different story on the outboard side read: scrubbing.

If you need a Passat to measure anything on let me know

HDT 16s are sought after by the brocky boys so they're quite expensive if you can find them. A set of 'vettes sold on ebay earlier this year for $400, bargain. cant remember if they were 16s or 17s though
