How about doing some measuring? If they clear the front calipers...they will clear the rear. Because of the 23et change from oem 51et...you would need 28 mm of clearance going inward to clear the front calipers. And then for the different diameter...you need 1" to 1.5", depending on if the current are 17" or 18", going inward from the circumference to clear the front calipers. Does a Tire and Wheel shop nearby have this size wheel that would do a fitment check for you? The last thing to consider is turning clearance...and that really can only be determined once a tire size is selected. I doubt anyone has mounted this exact wheel size...so you should try for a response on the Wheels-Tires section of this forum: https://www.golfmkv.com/forums/index.php?forums/wheels-tires-suspension-brakes-sponsored-by.57/

NO, a 15" wheel will not fit a GTI
