Welcome Leah. Like William said congrats on the car, they are very nice and with a little modding you can do wonders with them. Post some pics of your car so we can see.

Welcome to the forum and congrats on the car! Their very good value for money at the moment with prices dropping. You get quite a bit of car for what you pay.

Post some pics

Don't scare people...

The tyre people will match up the right tyre to the right diameter wheel, and it will be fine!!!

Check here if you're concerned!

Welcome 1eah, Its good to have you here! Hope you enjoy the forum. We are a helpful and enthusiastic bunch.
Great choice of Golf too. The suspension is a much needed mod on them as well.I ran Konis and lowered springs on my old mk4 and it completely transformed the car.
Anyway, once again welcome and dont be shy abou5t asking any questions here, we dont laugh or bite!

Cheers, Andrew
