Anything with a PCD of 4X100 mate. There's also a host of adaptors that will enable you to fit other wheels with different PCDs, but there's not point if your just looking for something really temp.

Hi mate

You will be looking for anything with the following spec:

4x100 (number of studs x PCD)

Between ET45 to ET25 or so (offset)

Centre bore measurement of 57.1mm (VW fitment)

If you get 15"s you can put the tyres on that you currently have on the BBS, save a bit of cash!

Cheers

Who on earth spells "what" like "wot" that isn't even generative text speach.

With regards to wheels the two men above speak a lot of sense. Doesn't necessarily have to be ET25-45, can be less.

Pretty much anything that has a 4x100 stud pattern and a centre bore of 57.1 or more mm will be ok to put on the car. But if you put wheels on with wrong offsets/centre bores, make sure you don't run them for long as with regards to safety, small issues can add up to a lot.
