They suit mk4's I think. What's the issue fitting them? Do you have coilovers? Are they hitting the front strut? You may just need a thin spacer.
Check the mk4 wheel thread - lots of helpful info in there http://www.vwwatercooled.com/forums/...l-q-76233.htmlComment

Hey mate thanks for the reply!
Ive had a really good read through that thread and yeah they should fit and even with a 5mm spacer there still hitting the coil over ..
i know guys that run these on mk4s with out the spacer really low too an they go on just fine. All the numbers point to them sitting nicely but iv had to order 10mm just to clear the strut an ill be way outside the fender :/Comment

No problems
They shouldn't be too far outside - I am running 18x8.5, et29 and they are flush with the guard. If my calculations are correct, that means yours will poke out 4mm further than that...(with the spacer on)Last edited by eri_12; 30-04-2015, 04:33 PM.Comment

cheers, what do you think about lowering top mounts for the coil overs? if i were to bring the struts into the body another 10mm and then adjust the collars out 10mm to compensate the drop.. i do really like a bit of poke but also want a fitment thats not going to give me defects, thanks for your help eriComment

Yeh probably - I dont really know a whole heap to be honest...better off asking someone who knows what they're talking about
Ask in the mk4 wheel thread so then its there for everybody to easily find when needing help on mk4 suspension/wheels
