personnally i wouldnt go bigger than a 15, you wont get a decent drop on 16s , without arch work. and if your after 17s 18s your car is gonna look like its on stilts.

bigger isnt always better :thumbsup:

16's max imo, anything bigger looks dire. BBS RXii's in 16" were run on the GTI's and looked mint.

i thought they came standard as 15" on the GTIs, and anyway the 6n2 has larger arches

My mate had 17s but removed the plastic inner arch covers.

Yeah that's right, they were 15's on the GTI's, but you can also get RXII's in 16's which I think came on the Golf mk3's? I ain't sure.

Mk4 Golf GTi Anni's had RXII's in 16", I think.

indeed the 16" RXIIs are 5x100 tho

Me personally would stick to a nice set of 15's

60/60 drop on 15's is perfect, anything lower and youll have troubles

Spot on.

My 6n2 1.0 on 16s and coilovers without archwork (still needs spacers and front dropping a bit more):

well i've got 15" bbs from a 6n2 gti on mine and its lowered 40mm amd there not a problem and as 4 the 16" bbs rx2 they did come on the mk3.5 golf

15x7's wound the coilovers right down. had to take the plastick arches out and run 165/50s but no major arch mods and it only catches occasionally.

17s with 185/35-17 is the biggest that fits MK4/MK5. That will give correct rolling radius of the tyre. I have them on mine, perfekt! 15s is for winters and pus... ^^
