Philplop Posted February 18, 2007 Report Share Posted February 18, 2007 37 would be best I reckon. Want to stay as close to possible as the standard offset, which I think is 37 actually on a non-GTI. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

vworks41 Posted February 18, 2007 Report Share Posted February 18, 2007 They would both fit and the 27et's will give it a wider stance.The standard offset for non gti lupo is 35. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Little Green Giant Posted February 18, 2007 Report Share Posted February 18, 2007 (edited) yeah when i ordered mine i went for the 27, would look cool i recon. well sad that i had to cancel the order! style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":(" border="0" alt="sad.gif" /> kinda glad i did though as i would have been bored with them by now!

Max69vk Posted February 19, 2007 Report Share Posted February 19, 2007 If you your using ET27 & 195 x 45x 15 tyres you'll get scraping on the back with anything over a 40mm drop. stick with the ET37 unless you're going to mod the rear arches.

vworks41 Posted February 19, 2007 Report Share Posted February 19, 2007 Or just use a 40profile tyre. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ramirez Posted February 19, 2007 Report Share Posted February 19, 2007 Get the ET 37.Or just use a 40profile tyre.Good luck finding a 15" tyre on a 40 profile.PS All non GTi's came with the same Et as Gti's 43. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tigz™ Posted February 19, 2007 Report Share Posted February 19, 2007 PS All non GTi's came with the same Et as Gti's 43.Arosas may have done.But the Lupo certainly didn't. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
