1. I doubt your going to fit 9.5 " wheels on your GTI.

2. There is a comprehensive thread on this front page about rims.

Mod's can you delete my post and merge the above question from the OP :)

You still won't fit 9" width wheels on the Golf. Not without working the guards. 8" width with 235mm tyres is about the most you'll get without rubbing.

i am looking at getting these wheels too.

but 5x112 PCD, 18x8.5" +45

the PCD you listed is for Jap cars and will need wobble bolts to fit. and those offsets will definately not work with our cars.

Yes you will! If you use a smaller tyre like a 215 or 225 with a little stretch then yes you will!

no Steve, that will be too pimp! :P

a 215 will look pretty cool, but i'd probs stick to 225 anyways.
