Hmmm I dunno. Not sure if you’ll clear the brakes. I’d have to say yes that they will fit, but I can’t say for sure. According to [tirerack.com](http://tirerack.com), the offset would be 40 for a 15" rim. I’m sure Gary or Don will chime in on this.

I bought a tsi awd from a kid in rochacha it was rolling on 14" steelies before I picked it up. This may be the same kid as jkucz28 is talking about…I think his name was dustin. the 90-92.5 awds came with single piston front calipers and with smaller rotors. So you can squeeze a 14" but I suggest a 15" for less hastle.

Unless you can find-  
14x5.5  
195/70-14  
+46mm
