Yes provided they have the right offset. 15" wheels were standard with 288mm brake setup in all GTI's. What brakes are fitted to yours??
Classic Green Corrado VR6 Storm | Jetex Cat back | BMC CDA | VT mounts | Bilstein B12 | 288mm front brakes | Mk4 rear brakes | Goodridge braided hoses | BBS RX228s | Shortshifter | Lupo wipers | Uprated headlight loom | All red rears | Refreshed leather | Fresh paint |

I fitted ebc 288mm turbo groove and dimpled discs with green stuff pads with my 15" gti alloy and all ok then up graded to a set of refurbished anni wheel which shows them off loads.
