thanks for the honest opinion, this is the original idea somewhat anyways. The knockoffs are a added idea since i seen them in a magazine i have.I would stick with the 195/60's front and rear but the front tires bulge off of the rim an cause them to stick out .Like this, this is the topveiw of the front fender .Im wanting to lower the front so maybe I can get away with a 2" narrow up front.If I could find out if disc brakes were possible to run with these wheels for up front, that would be cool too.But so far everyone that Ive asked, says no to the discs.

I have zero experience with standard Beetles so I have no input to offer on narrowed front ends. I am sure there others who do. Maybe they can outline the pros and cons.

Meanwhile, what is so unique about your situation you are being told no to disks?
