I was wondering if this set of BBS LMs will fit my '08 GTI. I know that I would need to use wobble bolts (or re-drilled as last option). Not to certain about the offset will fit correctly nor what size tires to use...thanks.

well a 245 or whatever you would put on a 9" to make no "stretch" will rub on 9" wide wheel w/ et42 if your lowered.

see if they can piece 2 sets of the front wheels that are 18x8

Interesting...need to call them on Monday. One otherthing, will 18x8 w/ et42 allow me to run R32 brake upgrades?

Welcome to the club I just turned 35 last week. I'm not into the whole stretching tire thing also.

Nice, my birthday was on the 9th. Turning 35 is not too bad, everything has clarity now a days. Dating sucks though.
