    15" wheels on GTi

    Hi guys,

    Has anyone put 15" wheels on their GTi? Do they clear the brakes okay? I am assuming they would as the brakes aren't exactly large...

    But has anyone done it?

    Cheers

    The spare wheel also has 15''. So yes, they fit with no problem.

    I'm guessing the Romanians lucked out and weren't provided a full size spare.

    If it came with 288 mm discs, then yes, 15 inch wheels will fit.

    The dimensions of the factory 15 inch wheels (optional in Europe) are 6.0 J x 15 ET43.
