    Search 5x100 on done deal and see what you like.

    I wouldn't go crazy on size, especially is its one of the smaller petrols as the bigger when won't help the gearbox.

    If you can get a good brand or even original VW wheels. Copies vary wildly in quality.

    Not to mention ride quality and driveability. i went from 14s to 15s on a golf and you could notice she wasnt quite as comfortable on the road as it had less of a side wall.
    I drive a 320 bmw in 15s and 17s . It was rotten on 17s . Every bump you went over the car wanted to follow the bumps . you were constantly adjusting , wasnt nice to drive, you couldnt relax
