Thanks Nik, but I'm sure if it's meant to be tomorrow, I'll be better off breaking mine than yours

Cheers Rob, but no, I won't get a chance mate. It's Wilco's in Watton or nowt!

there looking good mate , do they really sit that wide with the g60 arches ?
when i tried one i put it on the rear and did'nt think they poked that much
wide track with no spacers , result

the cars going to look so much better with the comps instead of them 17" bad boys IMO

Gutted for you mate, I'm off all day tomorrow now, so if you need anything picking up, I'll bring it to you before I go to Snetterton.
Text me if you want to go this route due to the time constraints!

either that or your welcome to use my rs's with 888's let me know and i'l stick them in

Cheers chaps
Trying to search online for any details of bore size on the wheels or the thread style I'd need on the bolts.

I will use the 17's if need be, I'd never give the RS's back

Edited
Bolts are M12 x 1.5 but must be flat faced not tapered, the centre bore on the MO's appears to be 62.5mm as opposed to 57.1mm of the VW hub.........does that sound about right?

So will steel wheel bolts do the job? I've a VW dealer down the road from me (Or GSF on the way to you...ish)........
As for the bore, look it up on www.alloywheels.com they're normally pretty good mate.

GSF do them at 1.60 each (I should get a discount on that)...........

I too am off all day tomorrow now so the same offer as Robs stands, If you need me to pick anything up from this side of the world and bring it over I am more than happy to. I still won't be at Snett until around 4.30 ish though because I have to pick my boy up from school before I head over there.

Steel wheel bolts are fine but VW/Audi ones are always tapered so they won't be any good. That web site does not list Compo's Rob, thanks though.

It's just occurred to me........these came off of a rally 6R4. These would have had studs through the hubs, and nuts not bolts. Double fuck!!

Oh well. 17's it is. See you tomorrow.

I meant for the VW bore size......, , I guess you'll struggle to get the spigot rings before tomorrow, it you find the size's though mate, bell me....., I can get down to a specialist before coming up.
