As Ceefeesh says, using the supplied blank caps and adding 56mm eBay domed stickers is the only real solution unfortunately.
I tried a few different genuine VW caps that I had lying around and none of them came anywhere near fitting.
The supplied caps have different lug profiles to OEM VW ones plus a tensioning metal ring.
What style of wheel were you thinking of Dave? Reason I ask is the CMW Estorils in 8J x 19” are advertised at 35mm offset and that’s far too aggressive a fit for a mk8, especially on the front.
Try and stick with ET42 to 45 if running 8” wide.
