JulieD's post in Yet another winter wheels question was marked as the answerIf you had specified a 2010 vRS with a spare wheel it would have been a 16" steel wheel with a 205/55/16 tyre.
You could get a set of second hand VW/Audi/Skoda/SEAT 16" alloys cheaper than a new set of steels. Basically any 5 x 112 from a mk5/6 Golf/Jetta/Touran, mk2 SEAT Leon/Toledo/Altea, mk2 Audi A3/TT or most older A4/A6/A8, or something from a mk2 Skoda Octavia or Supurb should be fine.
Your standard vRS wheels are offset ET51, and any OEM 16"s with an offset in the range ET35 to ET51 should be fine and will be fine with the same bolts (aftermarket wheels may need taper seat bolts instead of the OEM radiused bolts). Stick to 205/55/16 and you'll have a huge choice of reasonably priced tyres.
