cheap and eurp dont go lol
youve got loads of routes you can go.
fake splits. Lenso BSX
real splits. BBS RM
deep dish etc Rota Cups
will cost you probably £300.

what golf are you putting them on? gti or a non gti.
iv got some 4x108 (so will need adaptors) fake splits that im looking at selling, they need tyres and a refurb (which iv started)

if you want some girth go for anything about 7j and stick with 15s.
although my new wheels are 7j front 8j rear x 16"...... they have dish too but aint euro at all ;)

I think iv seen ronals in 5 stud but Tue don't look great. Problem with euro look is a lot of people have similar wheels and if you want uniqueness you need to look were you wouldn't expect. And 5x100 iv found doesn't have a great deal of killer looking wheels. Go on eBay and have a look through 5 stud wheels on there.

When it comes to euro 4x100 has the better selection sadly! ... don't know why, as the GTi's & VR6's are packing 5 studs.

You'd need adaptors which are usually around the £150 mark...

I think that cookie cutters would look good on a mk3, pretty different too.
