I have a street use standard beetle with CB dropped spindles and Kerscher front disc brakes. I am using 6 x 15 Fuch wheels (I guess et 35mm) and 185/65 Dunlop in the front. Unfortunately, the front tyres are just scratching the wheel arches when under hard cornering or/and heavy braking. I am using red Konis and stock front sway bar. I think the problem can be solved if I change to lower profile tyres and stiffer sway bar. I haven't tried this out yet. If you can manage to solve the problem, please let me know.

Also the inner tyres will rub against the torsion arms when the steering is in full lock. However, this can be easily solved by adjusting the steering stop bolts but you will end up with a slightly bigger turning circle.
