| Personally I think that's a little too much stretch. It may be a pain in the arse finding people willing to fit them too. I'd say go for 225s instead |

| I would say 215/35 is right tbh, I have a 225/40 on my 10's thats about spot on. So given yours is a 9" and 19" 215/35 would be my choice. |

| Front yes, rears are pretty much rolled on a mk4. I used a scaffold pole for mine with a heatgun beforehand. |

| Id say your gonna need 215s for clearance on a mk4 dude. i always run them on mine and they are fine. ride is harsh mind, but thats a given really. Cambs performance tyres will have no problem gettin them on. And for those saying its too much stretch, i have 215/35s on my 9.5 RS' |
