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.

So very true dude! The earlier models had a offset of 43 and the later 2008+ models have a 38 offset IIRC.Originally posted by dylan8 View Post^^^makes buying NICE after market rims difficultComment

No, it's only the GTi that came with 38mm offset wheels. The other models kept getting 43m offset wheels.Originally posted by VWindahouse View Post
Even the 6R Polos have high offset wheels (46mm for the new GTI)
As for finding 5/100 wheels, a lot of us have ended up buying from o/s since you can only really get 17"+ 5/100 wheels here for the Suburus

GTI came out with ET43 and ET38.
Pretty sure Ant's stockers were 43 and mine were 38. Wierd.
I'd love to know why.Comment

Did a trial fit and they will not go over the centre on front hubs.

polo stock rims
What's the offset?? Subi rims generally won't fit without spacers.
