Sorry if this has been asked before but do mk6 wheels fit the mk7? Looking at getting some winter wheels and don't like the offerings from the usual places.

I'm still undecided as to what wheels to bang on mine. I was gonna get a set of BBS CH-R for summer and use the Austin's for Winter Tyres.

All gone.

You can't go far wrong with a set of CH-R's esp in anthracite on a white car.
Big bucks new but you see the odd set crop up second hand.

There was a set local to me come up for sale recently which made me raise an eyebrow but I think they've sold on another forum now.

Picked up a set of Audi RS4's for the winter tyres on the GTD, the straight lines match the MK7 really well

Even Mk5 wheels or A3 8P will fit it....

I'm using A3 8P 16" Speedline wheels for my winter tyres.

That's what I've done as well - the winter wheels & tyres currently on my GTI were the ones I'd used for the last 3 winters on my 8P A3.

Have you not got Pretorias Jim?
I'd say they were one of the best OEM designs ever, not the prettiest maybe but light, functional
And really easy to clean. I'd not swap a set for BBSs
