Message	spanning the outside of the flanges. 8.5" is indicated but an OEM TT rear should measure that between the INSIDE of the flanges. I sent the seller (zkingcustom) an email politely pointing out that I thought he was mistaken in his belief that these were TT wheels. I received an equally polite reply acknowledging the error in which zkc said he was a TT.net member. I did a search here on that name and found out the guy had been posting here for years and should have known, at least, how to measure wheels and distinguish between NA and TT varieties. Looks to me like he was trying to pass off NA wheels as those for a TT, and just wanted to cover his ass with a pic that disclosed what the buyer was really getting in case the buyer complained later. Chance favors the informed.
