18" 5x112 18x8j et45

Not sure if copy or original so not sure what the above means, hence the question.

What wheels? My CH reps are the above and fit perfectly. Are these monzas?

Yes sorry 18 monzas. Not worried if reps or original just wanted to know if they would which you have answered thanks!!!

anything I need to know?

They are a typical rep offset for reps. ET45

Original 18" monza's are 7.5" wide.

Great thanks. So should fit on mk5 gti then? As they ar 8 not 7.5 does it make them stick out out? Why are they 8? Sorry first time buying wheels!!!

18 x 8 at ET45 should fit easily as long as you aren't slammed on suspension.

Great, car is standard so suspension is ok. To the untrained eye they will look just like vw oem then.

Yes.

I originally had 8x18 et45 reps on mine and had no problems. They did seem to fill the arches a bit nicer than the OEM 7.5x18 I've got on now
