    My wheel dilemma - please help!

    Hey Gang,

    So we're doing a Mighty Mods episode on pimping up a MK4 GTI and I really want to get some wheels like the Audi ones here.

    http://www.tempetyres.com.au/product...t=&part_no=726

    Problem is that the stud spacing is slightly different.

    Has anyone successfully used a conversion plate etc to make them fit?

    OR does anybody know of any other wheels that are similar that they think would look good on a MK4 GTI that's black. I'm keen to go silver, rather than colour and similar in design to these. We're shooting the ep in a week so pleae help!!

    looks like you can get em - see here, but can't see any in Aust. And seeing as you are shooting in a week, it's prob not of much help.

    Replicas would be the better option - adapters will push the wheel out further and might not be what you want.

    Geniune RS4 wheels are kind of concave. The replicas have much flatter spokes (to suit the different offset) and look nowhere near as good.
