Wheel fitment question
« on: January 31, 2022, 02:37:58 pm »
I quite like the calibre vintage wheel, or that dished style wheel anyway, question is, will they clear my mk7 golf r brake calipers ? They would be 18x8 inch wheels 42 to 45 offset.

No idea what Calibre vintage is but agreed on old school dished wheels.  Azev A, RH ZW1, etc look great.

Golf R calipers don't need a huge amount of room.  You'll just have to try the wheel and see if it fits, and get the smallest spacers possible if necessary.
