Looks good, even though I prefer silver wheels. I can't see from the pics but did you go with 225 or 235 section tyres?

Vwr recommended 235/35/19s so i went with them, feels nice and planted no rubbing issues

How wide are the wheels and what's the offset?  Ta

The VWR Wheel is designed to fit the Golf Mk5 and Mk6, together with all cars that share this platform (Eos, TT, A3, Leon, Scirocco, Octavia etc).
The wheel has been carefully designed to retain the standard Volkswagen wheel bolts, and also use OEM centre caps.

Most importantly, our testing has shown it to be an exceptionally strong wheel, as suitable for the day to day demands of our road as it is for track usage.  The wheels are, of course, produced in a TUV-certified factory for us.

The design of the wheel is visually impressive, with the long slender spokes going right to the edge of the rim, emphasising the size of the wheels.  The spokes gently curve outwards, giving them a real dynamic shape.  A really fresh, modern look.

The wheels are 19 x 8.5 with an offsets of ET52. Bolt PCD is 5x112 with a centre bore of 57.1mm.

The wheels are compatible TPMS (Tyre Pressure Monitoring System).

Please note, these are a very low-production run batch - just 4 sets of wheels are currently available.
