wobble bolts will make them physicaly fit but not sure how much they will poke tho! iv seen a few golfs with 9.5j all round altho cant remember offset, think it was et35 or et38.

cant u test fit one?

As above they will be nowhere near with an ET28 offset as 9.75. The 3SDM are 9.5 and ET 40 and they poke at the rear, needing air to tuck more.

Bentley are 9" wide and ET 41 and they sit flush at the front so these will look a bit silly.

Sorry :drinking:
