They look like either BBS RJ's or RZ's to me. Either way they were an official optional extra on Golf mk2's. Easiest way to check is to pull the centre cap off & if they are vw bbs they will have a part number beginning with 601, along with the vw logo. If you give me the part number I could tell you what they are if they are vw bbs, but not if they are bmw ones.

sorry meant to say the number on the actual wheel, which you will see when you take the centre cap off.

Think mine are the same as darnpb's. When I pop the centre caps off I have the vw symbol on the wheels.

I do have a spare centre cap, but it has no badge in the middle of it. I'll see if I can dig it out. If you are missing one then this one may suffice.
No promises, I need to look for it!
