Right got some good and some bad news. Went out to the drive today to find some kind person has thrown paint over the bonnet of my kitten! I know the car is surrounded by rubbish but that doesnt make it rubbish! haha But anyway back on topic. Bassically I went to Reading Festival and when I got back I checked my ebay and found out I had won a set of wheels, I don't even remember bidding on a set of wheels! haha But it was only 10 mins from "Down and Out" who is a friend of mine and a meet up was well over due so I set off to pick them up! I don't actually have a car to fit them on at the moment, but I can always add them to my wheel collection.... they are 4x100 and 13", the tyres all have legal tread and I only paid £25 so cant complain too much Heres some pics: They need a clean but I'm seeing if its worth getting the centre caps to match them, so does anyone know what they are?! Thanks Jack

They look like 'Team Dynamics' DTMs to me

I'd agree with that, and are you sure that they aren't 4x4" as they sold well for minis and metros in that size

Having a look online i agree with both of you, pretty sure they are Team Dynamic DTM's! and they were listed as 4x100 as they came off a polo, but being 13" and only 5.5J they could well be mini wheels! BRB off to put them on the mini and see Tyres are pretty big for a mini though haha

I tried them on the mini and the PCD seems slightly off but i didnt have any wheel nuts to hand to check properly, i should really invest in one of those PCD checkers! Ill measure them properly soon.
Is there anyway of checking the pcd by the writing on the wheels?

Not many people think to measure it like ^ that, and try to do it centre to centre and miss measure. Far more acurate to measure like the image

I wonder how many people see that and hold the tape measure where the horizonal Dimension A P.C.D. line is and try to work it out lol.

looking at them they are et38 offset so almost certainly 4x100 vw fitment. if they were mini, i would have expected the offset to me much lower, whereas et38 is oem polo offset

Ill get the verniers out in the morning and see for sure either way for £25 I'm not complaining! Does anyone know where I'm likely to find centre caps?

Just measured them and I'm pretty sure (99.8%) they are 4x100, I'm not entirely sure what i am going to do with them, i may just clean them up and sell them on, or buy another car to fit them on... haha
