Yup it does.
5x100 7J no problem. ET 40 is not the same as the stoch ET 35 but shouldn't be a problem.

Thanks.
But too late 'cos the guy selling it didn't respond to me and it's ended now.
And he sent me an email saying that it won't fit - what the?

Got it.
New question though. Will this one fit my Polo. The guy I emailed said no. But somehow I don't really trust them. What is the problem with them? don' they wanna make money/profit?
Anyway this one

It looks like he doesn't even know!
How can it fit MK4 Golf/A3/TT and fit the new Octavia as well if the new Octavia is 5/112

Dunno! That's what I meant. I jus got this from him though - apparently.
"the R5's are 7.5x17 5x100mm pcd and et35 the centre bore is 57.1 for VW" from that will it fit my Polo 9n?
Thanks.

Well I didn't have the time to email since I had like an hour left.
So I rang up Need For Speed instead and apparently they will fit. Hopefully 'cos I brought them now.
Please tell me they fit Aaran - it's the Fox R5 which are 7.5x17, 5x100mm PCD and ET35.

Phew. Thanks mate. I was starting to worry then. 'cos I'm contracted to pay that £350! And WHAT IF it didn't fit.
Thank you very much. How would it look like roughly? Wiill it look like it's sticking out or very tall if you get what I mean?
