before i get flamed! i know they're absolutely ridiculous bla bla bla :)

but the rears are 15x10 with -10 offset (negative ten hehe). will that foul the suspension struts? and how much would that stick out from teh body? 2inches-ish?

The ad says the 10's have an offset of -26?! But he provided the values for the backspacing, and 115mm should easily clear the suspension. I know the stock Mk3 wheels have a backspacing of 126mm. And those wheels will stick out wayyyy pass the stock fenders of a Mk1.

Adapters will be needed too so that'll stick them out an additional inch or so! Might be Berg Cup territory, or even beyond!

Those wheels look fantastic though... look at the way the spokes concave in!

oh damn i didnt see the offsets i just calculated it from backspace. ok that makes it ridiculous they would stick out 5" or something then hahaha.

but i really dig those old style wheels... the hotwires and other cheviot wheels, ats cups etc etc... definitely perfect for a mk1 imo
