Welcome to the new look VWWatercooled
After much work and little sleep there is a new version of the forums running on more powerful and recent hardware as well as an upgraded software platform.
Things are mostly the same, but some things are a little different. We will be learning together, so please post questions (and answers if you've worked things out) in the help thread.

The new forum software is an upgraded version of what came before, it's mostly the same but also a little different. Hopefully easier to use and more stable than before.
We are learning together here, so please be patient. If you have questions, please post them here. If you have worked something out and can provide an answer,

Take some photos of the back side of the rim/spokes. If they are OEM wheels there will be a part number there (e.g. 4f0 071 299 666).

It is beyond repair sadly.
I have found these numbers inside the rim but I'm not sure what they mean:
19x8j

Not sure what the other markings are for. OEM rims will have the full model code cast into the wheel on one of the spokes.
It could be that the rims you have are aftermarket (which may also explain why this one cracked).

On a CC I'd be looking at 19x8-8.5 and offsets around 40. You don't want Golf wheels as they sit too far in-board.
If your tyres are nearing replacement you could look to go for a set of 20" wheels and get the lot done at once (will work out cheaper as it'll be $120 just to swap the tyres over from the old wheels).
