I'm sure I sore a Golf with those wheels on today. I may be wrong but when I went past I thought they looked like Audi wheels. They look great by the way; if they do fit I would buy a pair...sure beats my standard ones.

They won't fit a Golf because the Golf mk4 (and mk 3 GTI/V6) have a 5 stud 100 mm PCD mounting pattern. The Passat/A4/A6 platform uses 112mm PCD as stated in the advert. If you want genuine Audi alloys then you will have to get the RS-TT sourced (or optional fit A3) version.

There are however a number of RS4 style replica alloys available on ebay that are dual drilled to suit either stud pattern.
