Not directly, but don't they usually flog these at the dodgy sellers?

Who are the dodgy sellers?

Seeing a handful of used Spielberg wheels for sale on gumtree/FB. Any thoughts of how these would look on a white 7.5 GTI?

There's a handful that flog in bulk online, mostly Eastern states but I note at least one has drifted west at least to Adelaide. They specialise in crappy ill-fitting made in China specials on rubbish rubber to suck in the buy now, pay later crowd. A lot of their sets retail for not much more than the price of one decent rim from somewhere reputable.

I knew a bloke who bought under a guaranteed fitment policy - it poked an inch outside the bodywork and the policy was ignored.

I'd just say be very wary and accept the old maxim, you get what you pay for.

Like a slightly better looking, more aggressive, white R?

I can't recall seeing them fitted specifically to a white GTI, but definitely other colors in this thread. You may hit a white car if you add 'Englishtown' to your search as this is their name in the USA as well.

IMO they'd be a fine OEM+ look upgrade, and if you got bored they'd come up ok with a black coat as well.

There is a fresh Mk7 wheel query thread right now - people have chucked a few decent brands at varying prices to keep an eye out for in there.
