They only just fit under a set of 16" polo GTI 9N3 wheels:

There is about 4mm clearance.

was thinking about them but they still go for about the same money as the TT rims..what do you think about the S3 alloys i still think they look good?

312s will fir under my standard 16" sport wheels BUT they will not go behind the 16" BBS RXii that i use in the summer.
the calipers catch on the inside of the rim, not the back of the face (if ya see what i mean) so spacers will not sort this out unfortunately!

S3 wheels will look nice! Seen them on 9n and 9n3 before.
