Alfa wheels are 5x98 so will need wobble bolts, later cars are 5x110

Ahh thought it was too good to be true, think they might be worth a go though, possible similar effect to Porsche teledials

I have fitted Alfa wheels to an octavia witch is same as golf fitment.
I just drilled 1mm out of each outer edge of the bolt hole and then put the domed edge back on that side making them 5x100

They were old zender wheels from on old Alfa.
So wish I had kept them for my mk3
They would have looked sick with 45 profile tyres
