    what you have to look for in the wheels:
    - big size = potential big damage due to potholes.
    - et or offset for the golf should be 35
    - your bolt pattern is 5 hole x 100 PCD
    - check that centre bore is correct - if buying from a shop they would probably normally have a spigot? ring that is correct fo the car as 5x100 is same as celica/ camry - but centre bore is different

    good luck - and wise advice - make sure you like em or you'll get sick of them!

    I like these on a mk4 and they're in the VW range.

    I saw these on a mk5 the other day and they looked awesome. I believe they're an american spec Gti wheel but I could be wrong.
