Without knowing the offset it is hard to say, if they are say et30 then you needed an adaptor of 20mm to fit them you offset is going to end up around et10 which would need serious arch work.

You can get 15mm adapters too.

I have 15mm adapters with 5mm spacers which makes ET15 and all I've done is rolled my arches with a hammer..

I had 10mm spacers making it ET10 but they rubbed like a b!tch, although if you had stretched tyres they'd be ok I should imagine!

However, those wheels are :sick:

all good info, sounds to me like to much hassle and money if i have to change tyres and get adapters etc, he wud of taken a low buy it now price so thought they might be worth a pop!

why is there never any decent rims for sale when i have some money! (which is never much to be honest!)

Offset is ET7 on the rear and ET20 on the front, with a small amount of room for adjustment.

The PCD is 5/130

Not a chance you would get them to fit a Golf then.
