what kind of tire..i had 235/45/18 on 18x8 et 45 and my fenders had to get pulled quite a bit...you'd probably need some absurdly unsafe size tire to get that to fit.
I was hoping 225/40/18, what offset would you recommend then?

Do the Mambo wheels from a jetta fit on our gti? If I'm not mistaken, they are 16x6.5 +50 5x112. Not sure if it'll clear the brakes.

235 is quite wide for an 8" wide wheel
I don't think a 16" will clear the brakes on a gti, oem my tdi came with 16" and that fitted only just, gti brakes are obviously much bigger
^^^ 16's fit a GTI
Hey bro. I'm no expert here but I currently run a set of AMG wheels from a mercedes. Front is 18x8.5 et 45 and fits pretty snug without any rubbing. Rear are 18x9.5 et 45 and required quite a bit of camber not to rub. Cant tell you the exact alignment settings as I purchased it this way but I am running h&r super sports. With that in mind, given the width and the et 22 of your wheels, you will require some aggressive settings to make those fit especially in the front. Hope my little 2 cents helps. I'm actually in the process of changing wheels to get away from the aggressive camber settings.I found an incredible deal on a set of Gramlights.
18x9.5 et22 - is this going to be super cambered? I’m static.

Why did you get 235/45/18? Thats the wrong size and is super tall compaired to 225/40/18. Makes sense that you had to pull your fenders.
