    Le Mans Wheels

    Does anyone know if the Le Mans wheels from a 2008 Passat Wagon would fit a 2003 Passat Wagon?

    They will - the offsets a little high, so you might need a spacer to clear the struts, but that's not too bad.
    Buy my clear GTI sidemarkers cheap!
    Will VagCom Mk5 and 6 in the GTA for donuts!

    Not sure... My wagon isn't with me, and I have aftermarket wheels.. Maybe 5mm? But that's a guess...

    I have a set of B6 Akiros wheels on my B5.5 and they clear, but the front wheels have about a finger width between the tire and knuckle. I've been running them like that for about 6 months with no issue.
