Default Wheel ET help please

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

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
