Vwlup0 Posted August 26, 2013 Report Share Posted August 26, 2013 Not sure about spacers, you probably will need tapered bolts rather than the standard rounded bolts.I had 7j starlights on my car and had to space the front 15mm to clear the calliper. All depends on what the offset is Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Silver! Posted August 26, 2013 Report Share Posted August 26, 2013 What's the offset\ET of the wheels and how low are you planning to go? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Slotman Posted August 26, 2013 Author Report Share Posted August 26, 2013 Not got them yet but believe they are ET28 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Silver! Posted August 26, 2013 Report Share Posted August 26, 2013 You might not need them on a standard Lupo. Wait 'til you get them, fit and measure the space you have. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scotty_82 Posted August 26, 2013 Report Share Posted August 26, 2013 (edited) Put wheel on, spin it while still on jack/axle stand. Does it catch anything on the inside of the wheelNo, then you don't need spacers Yes, then you need spacers, now go get a ruler.

Slotman Posted August 30, 2013 Author Report Share Posted August 30, 2013 Tried them on today -Tyres fouling arches will moving from 195/45/15 to 165/50/15 be the answer ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

joewf10 Posted September 26, 2013 Report Share Posted September 26, 2013 get 165 50 tyres instead of rolling arches, may cost more but the look of the tyre will look better Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
