X5PEA'S MK5 GTI
big al:
Do the BBS Rs's just fit on or was there much modifying needed? I am keen to get me a set, but cannot find any on e bay, and no one seems to have a spare set!?

Much modifying ? you joking the arches are 3" wider all round :signLOL:
The wheels themselves went straight on but the high ET and width meant serious arch work as mentioned.
Ive got a set of 17x8.5 et37 they are 5x114.3 so would go right on with a set of wobble bolts, youve little chance of finding a set of 18's and even if you do they are all very low ET's. I know of a set of 18x8.5 ET18 (IIRC) but they arent cheap at 5000 USD :laugh:

Its easier to get a crate of banannas fitting right than those wheels. :laugh:
