   if you get rims the correct fitment you dont need spacers mate.
   
   have a look on dubmeister.co.uk. Saxo fitment is PCD 108, et16 iirc

   naa, i think if the wheels are the correct fitment you wont need spacers even to get the down and out look as deep dish wheels are normally about 8J so wider than normal wheels giving them that sticking out look.

   The th's are sweet! I'm running bbs on the gti. You should be able to get 9's on the rear with some epic stretch

    You shouldn't need spacers if you get your wheel size and offset etc correct.
    I'm running 9" wide BBS's on the rear, they don't rub and have a decent amount of poke.
    My wheels don't have adaptors, spacers or even spiggot rings (bolt straight on FTW).
    However if you're buying BBS's they were only dealer fit and seem to have been discontinued for some years now (mine say made in WEST GERMANY on them) so you have to buy whats out there and they're not all any use for Saxo's.
    Good luck with it all, will keep my eyes peeled for updates
