Hi everyone,
I have a MK3 GTi 2.0 8V 1992 K reg 5 stud. What VW or Audi wheels will fit? They are standard 15" at the mo wanted to go to 17" but would rather stick to VW / Audi rims.

Thanks

they will be ok as long as you put 205 40 17 tyres on but they may rub a little depending on how low you go with you springs.

Just my opinion like but i think these wheels are becoming a little common on mk3s and 2s alike. You could get some stretched tyres on them and slam it, (with a little arch work)

Personally i would look for something a little out of the ordinary, and see what it could look like
