I'm going to take a stab at "wheels"

Sorry, stupid answer.

I'm sure there are plenty of people here who will give you a more accurate answer.

not sure ,but, as they have bbs centre caps i'd assume they are aftermarket?

they look like mk3 golf vr6 wheels. you can tell as these have a higher offset et43 than normal golf et35 hence the convex look to them :wink:

They look more like mk2 alloys, but what do I know!  :laugh:

Think they are called BBS RJ the 15" ET is normally found in 33 or 38.
The part number is something like 601 BBS 052

Unless I'm totally wrong the VR6 one's haven't got the nuts covered (ooh er!) less spokes, and are called BBS RA
Part number is 601 BBS 074

Get em bought and wack em on your car, that's all that matters! (They might look good with black inner spokes, make em look sort of split rim style!)
