I don't see why going 4 stud instead of 5 stud is an issue TBH

Well the point you missed is that VW fitted 5 studs for a reason plus they are bigger (m14) against (m12) so you could be seen to be making the car unsafe.

Switching to 5 stud would be classed as an upgrade as it is better than standard.

Have a read of the last thread on the subject: http://www.golfgtiforum.co.uk/index.php?topic=234812.0

I'd price up getting your wheels welded and redrilled.

Might be cheaper than the insurance premium and sourcing parts
