"The mk5 Golf and later models of Golf have a PCD (bolt pattern) of 5x112, so assuming the Audi space saver in your post is the same as the one in the link I’ve posted, it wouldn’t fit a mk8.5 GTI".

Is there an easy way of identifying the bolt pattern???

It’s stamped on to the back of the wheel, or you can measure the centre of the bolt holes if you actually have the wheel.

I’ve also read elsewhere that they can repair tyres that have had the repair mousse in them but they choose not to because it’s a messy job for them. I’m inclined to believe this.
I ordered mine from the factory with the spare and the Harmon Kardon sub sits nicely within it.
