Well if you go for the top ones, you're going to have to have 15"s, as by the looks of it they dont produce 16"s in the correct PCD.
Basically you need 4x100 PCD to fit the GTi, unless you want to mess on with adaptors.

Think I'll go for them then. Any idea what size tyres are best?

For a 15" alloy you'll need 195/45/15 tyres
EDIT: also, the top ones, Rondell 0058s, are on eBay at the moment in a seller's shop - check out eBay item 8042592768. They're on at £329.99 without tyres so there's not much in it.
