    Has anyone ACTUALLY fitted WRX wheels to their MK4 Golf or Bora?

    Hi guys
    I realise that the offset is slightly different but has anyone actually tried to fit a set of 16" WRX alloys to their MK 4 Golf or Bora? How did they fit up - was the offset a problem?
    Cheers Matt

    Offset is probably too big. I think wrx uses +45 or so offset, golf is 32 or 38? Dunno.

    Host the image on an image-hosting site (i use www.imageshack.us) and then type [IMG] in your post then put the image location (the URL) straight after that, then put [ /IMG] to close it. Don't put any spaces in the IMG bits tho

    Hmm those rims are hot. But look a little too big for a stocko Bora.

    Maybe a Vortex could fix that...
