Because Ibizas have huge rear arches and look massively gay with normal wheels on as they sit about 3 miles in from the outside of the arch, probably

For the money, its one of the best mods you can buy on the cupra... like robin said they sit away from the arches a great amount..

But along with improving the looks, it handles alot better

yup, mk2 is the same. I made a set of superlite for the last one and had to space out the rear ones. If i make some more for the next ibiza i will just make a 2" outer dish on the back instead of the 1" one

rear axle is shorter than distance between front wheels, so you need spacers to get wheels out even front and bk to handle better.
You get spacers off ebay,think theyre about £50
