Hello all, the names Rich Im new to the Pitt Speed Forums and am looking for a more local network to find service and parts. I drive a 2002 VW Jetta 1.8T. As mods go my car is Full stage 2, 3" 42dd TB exhaust, Autotech CAI, Forge 007 DV and turbo Inlet pipe, Euro Jet FMIC, Revo software, and Weitec cup kit. Aesthetically I am running 17" Porsche Boxter twists and there lies my problem My wheels are rubbing like a mother and I am looking for someone who can help me with chosing a better tire size and help to roll my fenders. I hope to get past this initial 5 posts quickly and start making some progress. ---

Well the Et is 55 all around Im using 1.3" spacers up front and 1.5" in the back. My biggest problem now is the size of the tire currently on the car they are rubbing and doing some serious work on my fenders. As far as pictures go I have none currently but will post a few when i get some. [Next page](https://forums.speedlife.net/t/hello-names-rich-new-from-pittsburgh/202743.md?page=2)
