Should be on the car next week sometime, car is new so I’ll swap the OEM tyres onto the new rims with no wheel alignment really necessary.
    Yep you will be fine. I have done this on a few cars now (although I did buy tyres for the first time in 20 years a few months ago).

    ..all that is required is pics or it didn't happen.

    I'm running 19x8.5 TSW Bathurst wheels with oversize (245/35) tires on a stock suspension (Mk7.5 GTI). No rubbing, no problems, no realignment required.

    Please post up in the wheel thread (although I have copied some TSW Bathurst set ups from the USA previously so if your active on golfmk7 or vwvortex I may have pinched it already!).

    Thanks on both accounts Dutch. I'm very happy with the transformation. The boys at Bob Jane says it looks "Killer" haha.

    They're a good looking wheel that suits the Golf IMO.

    When you have time let's get some more shots up in the wheel thread.
