13x7 et6 too wide for mk3?

Featured Replies

Hi CP,

Have just done a test fit with the above wheels and the fronts appear to be too wide, atleast in legal terms. The edge of the rim protudes about 3/4 inch out and I don’t want to chance bring pulled over, etc. 

 

Would fitting a tire tire and covering the tread be deemed ok? Was looking at 185/60 however I feel this will offer too much of a square shoulder and result in obvious poke. 

Are 175/50’s too narrow for modern tire regs?
