Welcome Bizarro
I put a set of CM Wheels replicas on my mk8 Clubsport back in January 2021.
They too were listed as ET42 on the website but when I queried it with CM they were actually ET45.
Personally I’d have preferred ET42 to fill the arches out but the 45’s sat pretty well.
I ran those wheels on my Clubsport for three years and they lasted ok despite the best efforts of some huge potholes.
If buying from CM ask them for club discount which normally means free delivery.
One thing I have noted is it’s become much harder to source replica VW centre cap stickers that fit correctly over the blanks the wheels come with. I guess VW must’ve sued too many people for copyright breaches(?)
