Wanna bet?

Trogdor,

I can't wait to see how you fit 9" rims all round your Ghia and what rubber you are running on them without major mods !

I'm not trying to be smart, just very hopefull that you have found a way of sticking massive rubber under the car without any major modifications to metal, inside or out!!!

This could be the greatest thing since sliced bread !!!

From personal experience there isnt much room in the back
of a KG. Ive run 195's and they were tight. I know some
have run 205s on 17 x 7's. Dont really see how 9's could
be put on a GHia and sit inside the fender and not outside
like a 4 x 4

So is that a yes?
And if I'm right you need to change your sig to Trogdor is the God of VW's.

I have 7"x17 with 4x100 bolt pattern on both my ghias, the wheels have honda offset
they rub in the front, i will prolly have to shorten the beam but not by much maybe 1/2" each side, or just raise it up.

I don't think so.
Lets see you drive it hard with them. In the corners.
