A fair few peeps have run them on Mk5's, look immense but they weigh as much as the moon though.

A few pics....

I had a set and they are by far one of the best looking wheels on the mk5

Are you after a set then? They aren't cheap dude, but I may know someone selling a grey set.

^^^^ I reckon they would catch, 19"x8.5" ET45 IIRC. That fitment has put me off those and the VMR wheels.  :sad1:

Loads of copies around nowadays on the interweb for as little as £450 a set which (unfortunately) lessons the WOW factor, its a little like wearing anything by Burberry. Seen a set of fake ones and you'd have NO idea they were copies.

They won't catch dude :) they are  the perfect fit for the mk5
8.5 et 44 or 45 = perfection   :grin:

This is my third set of 19x8.5 et 45 and they didn't catch once.
