Regular Posts: 241 Location: Germany | These are definitely 14" wheel trims and were used on a MGF. Just bought a set and I'll see how it looks on a Metro (MKIII). I have a white GTI and this could give it a bit of a MKII 80ies look. Edited by forcker 3/12/2013 10:01 PM | ||

Regular Posts: 241 Location: Germany | I have never seen it done So maybe worth a try! My wheels (kn vector's) are same offset and width as mgf steels, I dont rub with 195/45r14 I have 30mm arch to tyre gao and even hard cornereing I dont rub Good to know. So I don't expect any problems with fitting. Just need to get four tires... | ||
