Hello people, has anybody fitted 18 inch wheels 2 a mk4 ibiza? if so is there many problems i.e rubbing, cutting plastic off the arches. I'm currently running standard 17 inch fr wheels with 20mm spacers and coilovers.

Hey it has been done but has to be done properly or can look really stupid. ie wheel arches rolled, have a look at rashcupras readers ride thread he rolled the arches to accomidate BBS 18s and pulled it off in a fantastic way. This seems to get asked alot so if you don't get many responses try searching the mk 4 section for 18s I'm sure a lot will come up.

what do you have on there at the moment? If you are doing coiles and new wheels, maybe do the coilies first and see how low you want it. then consider diferent size wheels from there.

the roads around my way aren't perfect so I would go for 17's but if you can pull 18's off, do it!
