Not that that is the end of the world, but it could make it look more stanced vw crowd (not that there's anything wrong with that!  ) You might be thinking you don't want to spend the money on new inner wheel sections, but think about the outlay you will have on tires. Close to a grand when all said and done (shipping, balancing, etc etc)
Also I would demote that wheel project until after you get the 5speed and the engine degreased. Drive it for a while like that, then head to wheel town.

Ooo thanks for the info I will try and see what to get as close to that as I can, as you said either vw stance which isn’t to bad but a nice fat tire would look so much better. Love a good fat tire on a wheel
But yeah “wheel town” is a long way down the list of things to do, got the engine to reseal up and the new gear box to put in. Need it on the road rather than in the shed.
Keen to get into the engine tho. Got to build me a engine yoke first
Cheers
