Thx Guys, great feedback.So it sounds like Pretoria from CM wheels / Michelin 4S tyres which'll bolt straight on without offset concerns....?Or if I'm feeling flush, OEM from VW / Michelin 4S tyres but be prepared for a wait...?Cheers
Hi AllCar arrived a couple of weeks back and happy boy All advice re: size / offset taken on board from the above great advice....but I'm a little confused...These wheels are being sold on eBay by a VW dealer close by. I enquired and they've offered them at £1700 inc tyres which seems reasonable.I've explained to them they'll be going on a Mk 8 Clubsport and the guy went away to check with the tech who confirmed they'll fit ok....I'll come down and they'll do it the fitting for free.But...the ad suggests the offset is 51....in practical terms, what does this mean they'll look like when they're on the car ?https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/363241050117?hash=item5492da9005:g:hpoAAOSwjJZgf00F
