Hi Folks Just bought these four wheels with new centre caps , came off the guys Mk1 Golf Gti . I’m running a Mk2 with 8v with 16v hubs and 256mm Tarox Vented Discs and just Ordered Gaz Gold with (400/225lb) springs Car is a track car with a new built motor being done as we speak . Will those wheels be ok offset wise on a Mk2 for track day use ?? What’s folks opinion ?? Taff
Hi Taff, yeah completely fine! I ran RA for a while on track, with 280 discs - cant remember if i needed a spacer or not..but you should be fine with 256

Hi Taff, sorry I had read that wrong! I thought you these were 15" not 14's! I'd advise to go up to a 15". It wont be noticable visually and will give you much better tyre options! I dont think 256mm brakes will fit under 14's but I may be wrong.
