    I had the Miro STP-1s but I think now they've been superseded by the Miro Type 380 but they had the same size and fitment of the ones you linked. Not sure about the face of the Miro 368 wheels but the 380s didn't clear my brake calipers so that's why I needed 5mm on the front and 10mm on the rear. Should be similar.

    The rears would have looked better without the spacers. I sold them to a friend who has a Mk4 GTI and he needed a 5mm spacer on the front but none on the rear! What a jerk..

    Exactly! I'm so stupid and impulsive sometimes lol . I actually just bought a set of 17" wheels instead, a decent compromise IMO.. 18s look the biz, but ride like shiz.

    EDIT: Actually I don't know if 17 will be much of an improvement in ride quality but I like to pretend it will be.
