Hi there,
I have a Phase 3 306gti lowered on eibach and bilsteins.
I'm Looking at a set of alloys 7x16. Will these rub with 205/45 16 tyres on them or will I have to get the arches rolled?
thanks

depends on the profile of the rim, a motorsport wheel wiuld if its a motorsport type caliper.
310 goes under 15" so 330 under 16" should have a smidgen more room.
also if the rotor swept area is smaller and the pcd larger you may be able to move the disc in more over the balljoint.
