Is you 3" system on your Rabbit or your
Scirocco? There may be more clearance on a Rabbit or a Mk2 'Roc.
I've got no problem with the 2.25" on my '79, but I don't think 2.5" would
fit without a fight. The only real tight spot is the over the axle
part.

More my fault, but I know that the 2.25" is not recommended for
the 8v because you will have rubbing, for a certainty. I am
absolutely 50% sure of that. I give it my unconditional maybe.
Actually, Peter?
Naw, 2.25" fits pretty
good. I'm not saying to use it, but just saying that it fits. The only
problems I have run into in terms of fit were with 3".
