Surely 345s will require some serious swing arm work and stiil protrude way outside the arch

they had widened the arches by a few inches and modified the rear suspension to acomodate a coil over kit , could not find any info on wheel size , but they must be 12inch or more to acomodate 345 tyres , the engineeering was a work of art probably the best engineeered vw t3 out there
