MK5 Golf GT TDI Wheel Spacers caution when lowered

Just fitted Porsche 6-pots up front with 15mm spacers on my R32 18"s
(dropped 20mm) with no problems
I had rubbing issues on the outer wheel arch on cornering and when loaded up. My mistake was to match the fronts at 15mm
Now i have a nice set of Forge 11mm Spacers with no issues.
Min front is 11mm + to fit Porsche Brembos. 15mm gives plenty of clearance
Max Rear is 11mm
Hope this helps to avoid burning rubber smells when driving!

Lowering and wrong size tires and wheels. Some of the greatest handling downgrades you can do to your car. Lets see: "My car handles and drives perfectly as delivered from the factory. Seriously, I need to do me some downgrades that will make the car handle poorly and as a bonus make it unsafe to drive."

I agree but I had to have the brembo conversation. Just followed a You Tube video and they had 15mm upfront. When they were fitted I had 5 or so mm of gap between wheel and calliper.

Handling and cornering is miles better.

I could reduce fronts to 11 mm but no problems so far. In autumn I have plans to go with 35 profile tyres, with the sacrifice of harshness.
