wheels with a lip on wont fit lcr unless you want your wheels to stick out 3 inches past your arch

VW sell these for the MkIV Anniversary Ed.

There's a new set on eBay if you've got a grand burning a hole in your pocket

Y'know how you've got 5 bolts holding the wheel on ? Well if you draw a circle through the centre of each bolt hole, the pitch on the LCR is 100mm (PitchCircleDiameter)

Bigger Audis and the newest SEATs in the range have the holes slightly further apart (112mm) and different manufacturers tend to have specific sizes that they use for their range of cars (or vans/trucks)

It may be possible to get the wheels to bolt on using re-bolt spacers - discs that bolt to the hub and the wheels bolt into a 2nd set of holes in the disc - but they're thick, and as mentioned above, to clear the brakes they'll stick out of the arches by miles :(

To give people an Idea I used 10mm spacers and 8inch wheels and they were flush with the arch's pretty sure they were an ET35 off set but i'd need to check that off set......oh and I had a good 3-5mm clearanace on the caliper
