The problem is that et35 is not going to leave you a lot of room for an adaptor.

thats true. He's said that the garage who changed the wheels for him didnt remove any adaptors. His new wheels are 5x100 and they were a like for like swap. So, the back of the wheels say 5x112. But hes sure they were fitted to his MK4 with no adaptors. Hes even contacted the previous owner who fitted the LM's and he said they were 5x100. Is there any other explanations?!

he's either so stupid that he can't tell the difference between a mk5 and a mk4 or for some reason he's lying!

Right, the wheels are stamped 5x112. But they did fit, so weird.

When i put them on in the dark they werent centred on the hub as the centre bore is 75, golf being 57. So i found some spigot rings lying around and centred the wheel. Fitted no probs!

They could be going up for sale though as ive found some very good quality reps brand new for cheap!
