8.5 GTE wheels

The spec and options availability of a specific model will vary from country to country - I think VWUK determines the spec and options availability of cars sold in the UK. I daresay there’ll be other items of spec that are standard or extra cost options on a UK spec GTE that are not available in certain other overseas markets and vice-versa, so it’s a case of ‘swings and roundabouts’ when comparing UK spec with non-UK spec.
You may need to put your question to VWUK for a definitive answer, although the cynic in me would say don’t be surprised if you don’t get a response or if you do, you may be waiting some time as they’re not renowned for responding quickly - if at all - to queries such as this.

… I rather like my Richmond wheels.
Two big positives of the Richmond alloys for me would be;
- the design makes them very easy to clean.
- the painted / powder coated finish is very durable, and no issues with the almost inevitable white worm corrosion that many diamond cut alloys succumb to after 2-3 years; sometimes sooner. My current car has diamond cut alloys because that was the only option. However, given the choice between alloys with a painted / powder coat finish or a diamond cut finish, I’d go for the former every time.

In my country it has the same issue before some time, only 17" was available.
But if you go to a dealer in their system they had all the options for wheels!
