Will my winter wheels fit?
« on: 05 November 2013, 23:39 »
Hi I would like some advice regarding my winter wheels/tyres.
They are 8x18" bbs wheels fitted with 225/40/18 winter tyres with an offset et44.
They were bought for my mk5 and were fine with no rubbing/clearance issues.
Should they be ok on the mk7? Thanks in advance.

Yes, they'll be 100/5 fine and fill the arches better than the standard factory wheels  :cool:

Pics essential by the way - it's the law

Anyone know if Mk 6 GTI Monza 2 18" wheels will fit okay? I've a set with winter tyres, just wondered if they'd be okay to use until I source an alternative.

It was a typo, should have read 100% fine.
