        have a look on vwvortex.com there is a few people that have turbo'd the v5. I'm pretty sure there is even a kit out to do it.

        Did you buy the rims from a wheel and tyre joint? if so i'd be taking them back.

                    Maybe you need spacers for those wheels. You can turbo your car but itll cost $$$. Better to sell the car and buy a golf gti or audi s3.

                          The idea with spacers (if you decide to to that) is that you should use longer bolts not the standard ones. The standard ones have a 28mm long thread so if you use a 10mm spacer you need to use a 38mm long bolt. That way your wheels won't fall off.

                          Cheers.
