Alternative wheels

BMW 318 wheels fit MK1 Golf. I had a set of 6J steels with 65 profile tyres on my first diesel and it looked great. (Should never have sold that car!)

Porsche wheels with a high offset will go on, as they are 5x130 theres enough room to get a 100mm bolt pattern on an adapter. If the rims are et52 - with 20mm thick adapter you've got et32, design 90's look awesome on most VWs IMO

You talk about adaptors. Are these PCD adaptors? And if so, can you get them to convert Peugeot 140PCD hubs to an more common stud pattern?

i need ideas for wheels for my mk1 (preferably cheaper options) i want something cheap, but wide.

Ronal Turbos add that touch, the only reason i when cheap tempe tyres stuff cuz that dude was asking $550 a peice, with out tyres so $2200 with no tyres.....dreaming but they are hard to get soooo he had apoint. hmmmm u can see why i only spent $900 on my set up, with rubber!

gemini steels fit on, not sure about offset though
camira wheels will fit to but centres will have to be drilled out a bit, dont ask why u would put them on but they can go on if u really want..

yeah they have that similar chaser look, like the golf ones but with more holes well i think they are standard gemi wheels. whack on some 45's or 50's profile and youll be laughing........
