Oxboll

The suspension has been aligned, and the wheels are actually not sticking out. I think it's an optical illusion because the spokes are convex. As you se on my last two photos in the first post, the wheels are in the arches. And I have been pulled over by the police, who wanted to take a look at the wheels… And the verdict: They're IN :-)

No problems with ET 35 and clearance at all. I was quite nervous myself when I test fitted the wheels, but my auto mechanic buddies kept telling me it wouldn't be a problem, because the camber would change when it got lowered… and they were right :-) ET 48 would look wrong I my opinion, wheels need to line up with the arches and not hide in them… BEFORE LOWERING THE CAR: The view that made me nervous during the test fitting of the wheels:

Glad you like it :-) @ JonA: The ride is smooth and comfortable. No nasty jolts up in my spine at all :-) I have a 150 km trip to and from work everyday, so it needs to be drivable!! But on the other side I'm used to riding on 19" and 60mm dropped H&R suspension on my old car: Flickr set of my old Seat Altea 2.0 DSG I can't compare with 17" since I haven’t tried some on yet… But I'll be running 17" this winter season, so it won't be long… The Photos are from Denmark – but taken on August 30th when the weather was still nice!!!
