Default Help 2.7t Brake Clearance problem (Wheels)

I acquired some 18 inch wheels off of a passat with the 5x112 bolt pattern. The front wheels don't clear the brakes. Will they fit with spacers? If so which ones will I need and about how much do spacers run? Thanks guys.

I have a 2000 2.7. They have a 35mm offset. So I had to get some 5mm spacers. I used a kit from Eibach that cost about $72 for a set. They come with the extra long lug bolts that you will need. Don't try to use spacers with stock bolts. The wheel will come off while you are driving. I got a set for the front and rear to balance the wheels out. Good Luck
