Yes they are 17s all round, apart from the 5 x130pcd conversion they will bolt straight on.

G'day fellas, my name is Paolo, was fortunate enough to run into a couple of your crew at the VW nats in Sydney. Andrew and Andrew. Was great to see your Type 3's but there was a clear shortage of them at the show and I went home a bit disappointed. Anyhow, keep turning out the cool cars.
