Mk1 Wheel fitment question

[fahrvergnugen at cox.net (David Utley)]

Confirmed, Sebrings are 15X6, while all other Corrado wheels are 6.5 (BBS,
Speedline).  I just looked it up on ETKA.

I believe Sebrings are 15X wider than anything else earlier. I haven't
measured my set yet, but 205's look really good on them.

If I may, the Sebrings are actually 15X6.  I had a set as well (on a GTI).
I had rubbing on the right fender, could have been easily fixed with a 
fender roller.

I have a set of stock Corrado Sebrings on my MK1, 15X7 I think.  They only
rubbed a little bit at full left or right steering.  The rubber on them is
195/50/15.  My suspension is stock MK2 springs.  Right now it doesn't run 
though, caught fire.  I get my new rubber from EdgeRacing.com (no
affiliation).  It's not a bad price if you have a way to mount low pro's
yourself.
