I think they would cause escos brakes are the same as saff cossie brakes and they came with 15s.The only way to tell is knowing someone with a cossie and try the wheels on the cossie.

if there 15s mate the will fit as the spoke goes outwards, not inwards like the gti ones you have

im sure on safs that have had gti wheels had to space them due to catching
