Title: Will these wheels fit?
Post by: jaffa666 on March 28, 2010, 10:55:43 pm

As tits suggests seen a set of wheels that i quite likes the look of, but not sure if they will go on the gti, I am sure the stud pattern is correct just not sure about the rest, if someone can tell me if these will be ok or not, i would be greatful, also will prob be lowering the car aswell just a set of springs, so if the wheels do fit will they be ok on a lowered gti aswell.

Wheel size - 8.5 x 18
offset - ET35
Stud pattern - 5 x 112

cheers!!

X2, to low a ET, might be possible by adding camber?

Depends on what width the rim has  :wink:
8,5" is ET48
