rang rimstyle today and they told me i couldnt have 13" wheels (ATS classic) to be precise because of the brake clearence... however there is clearly cars on this forum that are running 13"... do they fit ok????

i got my 13inch classics from rim style i have to run the fronts with a 5mm spacer to stop them catching the caliper, so yes hes kind of right... however mines an 8v and yours is a 16v. i beleiver the 16v's have bigger calipers, is that correct?

I'm not too sure wether they do or not ... although I'm curious to know coz I'm fancying some 13" and would be a bit poo if i couldnt have them....

Sorry to say but you won't get 13's to clear valver brakes without mahoosive spacers, which I wouldn't recommend trying

okie dokie cheers for that....glad i didnt go ahead and order them

I'm running 13X8 Alley cat's on my Polo, it's a 95 1.6CL with solid disks, i had to grind a bit off of the width on the caliper to clear the inner face of the wheels but diameter wise there is loads of clearance.

I have dropped it about 20mm more since taking these pics.

that looks cool but you need to be super low to pull off 13's on these :)

cheaper then spacers i guess. I thought nothing of it when i put mine on, and then i attempted to spin the wheel, ha. Winter wheels will do for now.
