hi all, sorry for a 'will it fit post'

currently selling some wheels on ebay and ive had a question asking if they'd fit on a B5.

the specs are 8.5j and ET48, 19" Audi Speedlines.

just wondered if anyone has run similar set ups without any issues?

thanks in advance

am i supposed to be a 140 hater?

i've only said what is fact between my car (1.9 TDi) and my dads car (2.0 TDi 140)

tbh id probably have a 2.0 if i could afford the extra insurance and running costs. but for me the 1.9TDi was the only option.

My input, I have a 2006 1.9 TDi SE with 95k ish. i paid just over £5500 for it, and for the money its a bargin, very good value. Mines ex-lease (most of them are) and was on 90k when i bought it in September, has not skipped a beat. Still feels really tight to drive, only 105bhp but still pulls pre...
