Side door catches ever so slightly... Would be solved by getting the ET48 version and that would also sort out the left side axle poke on VW's

I think I read you can space the door out on the hinges about 5 mm to clear the wheel

Is it possible to run 18x8' et20?

I assume there maybe issue with SLD with ET20?
Thanks in advance

No chance. The smaller the ET the more they poke out.

I run ET42 and can open the side door with a few millimeters to spare.

Hi
I need some summer wheels for my 2015 Caddy, and I was thinking of getting som 19" or 20".
Now its winter i Norway, so running on 15", and they are way to small to use in the summer time.. :p
Image
So can some one tell me the dimensions that will fit perfect? Was thinking of tire, ET++

DROOOOL!

I have a "thing" for steel wheels! I had 7x16 et31 merc steels on my T3 (T25 for you Brits!), and I'd have 17" steels on the Touran if they had them 8)
