| Hi i currently have some TT Quattro Replica wheels on my Octy VRS. The ET is ET38. I currently do not have a spare wheel as the previous owner decided to sell it. Ive found a spare wheel but the ET is ET33. Will this fit without alot of problems? ie not rub etc.... Thanks in advance Adamhodg |

| Will depend on rim width. IIRC the 7" ones are ET35. How wide is the spare rim you have?

| The fitment of the wheel is: 8x18 5x100/112 (Most VW's, Audi's, Skoda's and Seat's) ET33 57.1CB No idea what half of that means. Im not quite upto date with specs regarding wheels lol. |

| May well rub the arches as they'll stick out too far.

| Will it be ok as just a spare though? Will it rub really bad? Or am i better looking elsewhere for another wheel? |

| the ET33 wheel, assuming they are both the same width, will be 5mm closer to the arch than your existing ET38 |
