Hi everyone,

Will these fit straight on my GTI? Do you think they will look ok?

Me likes the look of those! Pretty damn sexy if you ask me!

They should fit, just a matter of if your lowered and how much by! If i had the money for some new alloys, they'd definately go on my list of possibles!

P.S 8" wide

lots of area for road gripage!

Your gunna need to get rubber bands on them rims to get them to fit without rub'in!

My winter rims are 16x7 and they rub on the front @ -70mm down rears are ok because i have had my arches pulled and flared out!

My 15 x 8s rub on full lock but if i have it to low it hits the out side edge of the wing which could be very nasty!

I'd pass on them unless you keep standard height or get flared arches!!

Just my thoughts!

couldn't agree more!
im on 16's 7J
at -75mm mine rub on full lock and in reverse and also hit the arches when i hit a bump in the road
