Did you narrow the front axle beam or the rear trailing arms?

Your new wheels are 18" in diameter. How wide are they?
You are saying that they have a 25mm offset?

How did you lower the car?

Thanks in advance.

I thought so! The rear arches have the little nub that mates with the side trim of the Golf!

SLICK LOOK 4SPEED.

How does it handle now? Do you have any problems with rubbing when turning or anything?
