I am waiting for a call from Vivid Racing saying my new wheels are in and ready to ship! Kinda been a cluster, but I am actually going with the wheel for the GTI. It has the same bolt pattern, similar offset and half an inch wider than the stock JCW wheel. Still haven't heard back if the center bore is the same or (fingers crossed) bigger. But they weigh 18 lb. each and are 18x8 ET 49.














Will also be going to a 245/45 R18 which stacking the tries next to the stack stock tires there is about a half inch difference between all 4.

I'm pretty sure VW hub bore is 57.1

Those wheels might be available with 66.6 or even larger though.

 

very nice choice.

The ZE40s are one of my fav volk wheels right now.

 

I'm interested to see these on your JCW Countryman. Great looking wheel.
