Re: Fitting Opel rims on a Golf??
the pcd is both 4x100 but the offset might be wrong and the centre bore wont be the same

Opel rims on a VW is a sin!

Re: Fitting Opel rims on a Golf??
bru those rims look hot on a citi golf. I think if you getting it for a good price take it. Seen a few citi golfs with those rims on so it should be an easy fit.EX-DOHCTOR wrote:Opel rims on a VW is a sin!

Re: Fitting Opel rims on a Golf??
I once bought old style 15 " Hockenheims from a guy who had them on an opel astra, and the offset was way wrong, I had to fit 8mm spacers front & back to make them clear the calipers in front and the coilsprings at the back on my Mk1 GTS.
Edit: It did look wicked though - the wider stance !

Re: Fitting Opel rims on a Golf??
Standard offset on the older (Pre Astra H and Corsa D) Opel models was 49. The newer cars have a 39 offset.
TSW always gives 40 or 45 offset wheels as options for Opel drivers
Rather get stuff designed for your car.

Re: Fitting Opel rims on a Golf??
the offset is perfect as it is a 38.... the PCD is evenally matched ,the only problem is the centre bore which will need to opened up a mm or 2....ZeezU wrote:Hi guys...

Re: Fitting Opel rims on a Golf??
Thnx guys....
Btw dood786 i was talking bwt CD 16v rims...
CD's do look good on a MK2...i've seen them on a white Mk2 and it looks awesum!
Hmmm u guyz got me thinking......i originally wanted velo rims but then thot itz abit too common...and i can't seem 2 find any other 15" rim that would look good on a golf 1.
Any other suggestions? Apart 4rm those irresistable bbs rs rimz which are too xpensiv 4 my pocket
I need rims soon coz my front rim is slightly buckled so dont wana be driving around like that for too long.
