I wish all Mk3s in the US had come with the same bolt pattern.

We have 4x100 for 2.0 ABA engines and 5x100 for VR6 engines.

Is there much interest in standard GTI rims?  Ive just replaced mine with a nice set of Autec 5 spokes which are polished and was thinking of sellin the original ones which are the same as the ones in this topic?
