Right guys really struggling with fitment on my new wheels for my silver ek4 was originally going to order some white 15x7 et35 buddy club p1's but have now been told they are out of stock for the next 2-3 months :( so the question is do you guys think that a 15x6.5 et42 would work or is the fitment just gunna be too week, on the other side of things i have been thinking of some 16x7 et42 but just cant think what is going to work better and i am really looking for some oppinions from you guys

so the choices are:
wait for the 15x7 et35's in white
get some 15x7 et35's in black with a red lip/or just plain black
get some 15x6.5 et42's in white
or finally get some 16x7 et42's in white

:( please help!!! all help massivly appriciated guys

Imo, the 15x6.5 et42 will fit nicely. Im planning on investing myself some buddyclub p1 sf's. 15x7 et35's would fit nicely too, I think I've seen a guy with 15x7 with a decent drop. It all depends what you're trying to do with the car? Daily driving or what not.
 
Kinda trying to make it a daily drive but with the ability to embarrass a lot of cars round my way and go on the occasional track day so kinda a bit of everything :/
 
Then I say 15x6.5 would be great. But at the same time 15x7 has that aggressive look because of the wider length. You can always roll your fenders if you're afraid of it hitting your fenders.

Not really feeling rolling my arches tbh as with it just having a full respray dont really wanna mess around with stuff like that in case it ****s up ya know so think i will go for 15x6.5 et45 but now the question is what colour option white, black or black with a red lip or maybe even gunmetal grey :/
 
15x8 with a 25 offset or a 35 offset looks sick. only thing is you need to do some minor fender work.
 
If you heat your fenders the paint will become flexible and wont crack or chip. you just gotta make sure you heat the paint enough, and use a fender roller and NOT a 3in bar or a baseball bat. That will just F your fenders up bad.
