Anyone got these on their MK1, or know if they were an original wheel/option?
Thanks

The trouble with doing nothing is that you never know when you are finished.

With the age of this car and the WWW Web, even tho more common in US, wouldn't imagine that it wasn't avail as an option elsewheres.
What do Divorces, Great Coffee, and Car Electrics all have in common?

They're 14" - Can someone confirm what tyre size I should be going with? 185/60? My car is a 1.8 8v mk1 GTI "F" reg, if that makes any difference?

Not saying it couldn't or didn't happen but at that time we were all selling BBS so I think those would have come later after the car left the dealership in the U.K.
But all this does not matter because you like the wheels and it's your Mk1 not ours! 😉 👍🏼

Thanks for all the help. I've managed to buy some "Le Castellet" alloys now (although I have a 6 hour round trip to look forward to, to collect them). They're definitely better than the aftermarket ones my car came with, and should clean up well with a refurb.

Yup 185/60 would have been standard on these wheels.
