Serrons.. Englishtowns.. Hartmann reps - you've definitely spent some time around USA based Golfs.

I'm just heading out so I'll address in more detail later, but yes what ^ tigger said is absolutely an option. I'm very biased on OZ so I'd also suggest the very traditional Ultraleggeras (available in silver and grey) or the newer Leggera HLT (available in a quite beautiful 'grigio corsa' which looks like traditional silver, but has quite a bit of grey through it).

Not 100% sure on what is fitted to the picture, but guessing it may be something like a Niche Vosso judging by some of the markings. There will be quite a few options though in that style - you could go OEM+ style and try and find a set of those from an Audi S3. Most will be 19" but they did do that style in a 18" as well.

More to follow later.

I don’t mind those, but is the centre cap replaceable with VWs? Is this a general concern or am I too finicky?

I saw these out and about today, tryna find out whether they are OEM or not.

You can always get an OEM or after market cap in there; it's quite common if the wheel has an OEM look or you're just trying to keep things more discrete.

As for whether they're OEM, well yes - for a BMW?

Yep. BMW wheel on a VW is a no-go? Will my car get keyed by a disgruntled enthusiast?

BMW wheels are generally 5x120 so you need adapters to fit them to VW (5x112). It is do-able, however adapters usually increase the offset by 25-30mm so on a Golf this is probably not going to work.
