    I think they are 225, although we never got Phat 5's on the TT over here.

    Are you talking about rims or tyres? 225 is a tyre measurement?

    We have alooooot of fake Phat 5s here in SA.
    Theres a guy selling OEM TT wheels with 205 Pirellis, Now I know you can strech them, but 205 on a "225" wheels is pushing it right?

    Thing is the fakes are all 205 tyre width, the S3s are 225 tyre width so I assume the TT wheels are also 225 tyre width.

    yep, S3 and TT are the same car/spec.

    I'd suggest that the fakes are only 7" wide wheels to better suit a 205mm tyre

    JK8, are you referring to Tapies set?

    The OEM stock wheel is 17x7.5J. 205's will fit perfectly. I run 205's on my 8J's, and they only stretch a little.
