    team_v is spot on, ET50 - So that basically means the wheels will be sitting 15mm in from the guards (based on ET35 being flush)...right?

    • Yes they'll sit 15mm further in BUT if your OEM wheels are 19x9 then you also lose 25mm in width, divide that by 2 and your Golf R wheels will sit 15+12.5 = 37.5mm. Even with ridiculously big 25mm spacers they will still sit too far in and look tiny when fitted.

      Ideally you're better off searching for a wheel with et35. I was lucky enough to find the last set in the UK. There may be more out there somewhere, or on a ship ready for delivery but they are RARE.

      • Does anyone know if these wheels are available in Australia and what size they are? I found it on a site and they called it a Track or Avenue

        • They look like 19" x 9" Savannahs.

          Can't get the originals here from VGA!

          Although had been featured on the website for like 2-3 years as "coming soon".


          It's possible to get replicas of these though.

          Otherwise, be prepared to pay more than what they're worth (imo) sourcing it overseas.


          Go to post #128 of this thread if you want to see some photos of real ones fitted.

          • They do look absolutely trick! But my dealer quoted me $10K on a set of 4x 19" Savannahs! So I'm sticking with 18" New Yorks for $1200 (at time of ordering)

              • The Breyton's will look sweet!

                Are they 19x8.5 or 19x9?

                Looking forward to pics of the new wheels fitted!

                Cheers.

                  Thanks...its 19"x8.5 et35..no spacer or center cone required...plus its lightweight...9.8kg...but might need to upgrade bigger bbk to make it looks better...coz of the thin spokes might expose d hollowness within d wheel...hopefully it doesn't...lol

                  • Hi all. I've had someone ask me a question. And if they read this they'll know who it is

                    19x8 ET41. Would that fit a Tiguan?

                    Appreciate my info!

                              • Those look quite similar to BBS CH's so I'd be really interested to see how they turn out. Just out of interest where is that front splitter from and would it fit a 2011 Tiguan?
