    they do look pretty sweet, but i hope they actually are 14x8... not many cars can tuck that if they're that wide.

    'the off set from the back of the mounting face to the outer edge of the in side of the rim is 133mm 5 1/4" ' how would this suit a mk1 guys?

    I dont even have a mk 1 anymore () and I still want them! cool as.

    couple things. you'll need different wheel bolts (or studs) centrebore spacers and you *may* have trouble clearing the front brakes on a mk 1.

    then tyre size, if they're actually 8" wide, i dont know what the hell tyre you'd run! (to try and keep it low profile still)

    From the info he's given, I figured it out to be about ET19. which is pretty good for an 8" on a mk 1! hopefully his measurements were accurate!


    i like volkswagens

    thats backspacing, take a wheel off your mk1, put a straight edge on the brakes where the wheel would normally sit, then count 133mm or 5 1/4"towards your suspension

    ohh and i also seriously doubt they are 8" wide.... the barrels arnet wide enough

    most people measure the size from far end to end, when infact its correctly measured from inner tyre bead's

    THIS!! is a 14x8
