Finally sorted out some longer McGuard Wheel Bolts from Halfords and managed to fit some 15mm spacers on the rear today!!

Need your honest opinions though guys does it look good or not?

Seems to be sticking out a fair way and I think that the design of the wheel doesn't help?

Or am I just not used to it?

Looks pretty 'PHATT' to me?

Gave her a clean but also fitted some brand spanking new headlamps!!

Looking very very Good..

Do you have any problems with clearance with the wheels hitting the outer lip on arches, with the 15mm spacers, when going over bumps or turning at speed, or is it OK?

Where did you get those centre caps with the VW badge, as they look like the real Audi ones but with the VW centre?

When I had my RS4's I wanted what you've got, but I could not find anywhere to get them. I just had the real Audi centre caps with the backs trimed so they would fit the replicas I had.

Thanks for all your comments guys, I suppose that it just takes a bit of getting used to but I am liking them!!

RS Golf - No problems as yet, haven't had people in the back of the car though yet? I am sure that it will be OK? Or at least I hope so!! As for the centre caps they came with the wheels, I bought the wheels from PremierWheels about 2 years ago, I specified the VW centre caps and I have to be honest and say that I prefer these to the Audi, chrome ones!!

Asgh4r - It is always pretty clean but I think you caught me slacking on that day?

Jotape - I only bought 15mm for the rear? The front wheels seem to stick out a far way on the front so much so that it is already close to being illegal?
