Not sure on the thickness of the adaptor plates as her boyfriend made them for her in his machine shop, PM her for more info!

What size are the teledial and offset On my tintop i have 6/ 15 on the front and 7/15 on the back all et 52.3 (i think ) 20 mill spacers fit best unless you can get 15 for the front but if you have wider than 6/15 at front you need to step them out more and then watch out for arch scraping
I hope that made sence

I have 195/50 tyres but if you get lower profile it obviously helps. I wish i'd have gone for 165/45 or 50

The offset is the number on the back of the wheel that starts with et :wink:
If the et is 52.3 then with 20 mill adaptors this takes the offset to 32.3 which is the closest you'll get to normal vw offset. That is if the info i have been given is right that you can't get 15 mill spacers anymore (off the shelf that is )

30mm would make them et22.3, might have some rubbing problems with un-modified arches, i had the lip cut off my arches, and ran 15x7 that were et25, had 165/50 tyres on so there was no rubbing
