both are 4 x 100 so in that respect yes.

dont know what size the flange is going to be and i dont know what the offset would be, but id imagine they would be fine.

Had some on mine, the offset is odd and they caught on my arches but I guess every golf is different.

Probably got lost in the "Great Crash of 08

Centre bore is the same, offsets tend to be a bit lower than on the Golf, normally around 25mm or so. From what i've seen the beemers normally have slightly higher profile tyres fitted, which combined with the offset can sometimes cause rubbage when lowered

Heh 'flange'.

Technically on the wheel it's 'centrebore'.  On the car it's 'hub'.

Still, flange eh.
Just because you're offended doesn't make you right.
