A man after my own heart.
And it is so good to hear you're going to keep the red rocket, ooops, I'm beginning to sound like Asker, errr I mean the mk6.
I copy and pasted the fat fives for another guy on the mk5 forum as you need to be a member on the Scirocco forum. Not sure if they're your cup of tea but they are such an easy design to clean that they'd be ideal for winters:

They are coullstar's wheels - Graeme Coull - a mate of mine, who was down at GTI International with us this year!
I did see them, but at 8.5" wide, the offset is a bit low to fit the Mk6, in my mind.
I'm not into this whole stretch/poke/tuck show boll*cks...and I know how close my 8.5" 192 are on a 52mm offset...so a 45mm offset will likely have them out of the arches.
Well spotted though...and if they were 8" wide, they'd be perfect winter wheels.
I wondered if you knew him being as he's local to you. He crops up on lots of forums.
Sold now too.
