Title: Different alloy fitments
Post by: golf nutter on August 04, 2011, 06:07:08 pm: are all alloys from the VAG group the same in terms of stud pattern, offset, etc? i am wondering what other alloys would fit a 2008 GTi. also, what is the pcd, offset etc please for the standard alloys (Monza 17's). thanks.

Interesting that the R32 wheel has the identical dimensions as a Skoda Zenith. :drinking:

Would love to see some pictures of yours mate, I'm looking at fitting BBS CH to my vRS and if they look good I could put the Zentihs on swmbo's Golf GT. :happy2:
