Sorry, no way that is going to work without bodywork.
If you really want to use them (which is understandable), i'd drop the wheels and car off at a custom bodyshop and have the car fitted to the wheels. I recently had the rear of my wife's mk5 widened .75" on each side to fit her wheels better.025garage

Man I **** to be "that guy," but you should just order the smallest tire you can get, and make them work. pulling your fenders 1-2 inches is not even a big deal just be patient."on our way back i hit a bump and both of the springs slip off of their seats and slashed both of my front tires."
