have a 95 fwd Tsi, was wondering if it would be beneficial to change to gsx brakes. Or if I should just go with evo brakes because I plan on doing that in the future. If I go evo brakes what size and offset rims would I need? Any input would be greatly appreciated!

Evo calipers are pretty big. I have 3kgt vr4's on mine. Similar size as evo's.
Easy answer look to what will fit an evo that used those calipers. 17x8 +35 but keep in mind not all wheels have the same spoke clearance. Just look up wheels that will fit an evo 8.
For evo brakes I would go front and back and consider upgrading your brake master to a 3g. A couple threads on tuners about doing it.

GSX brakes would be a good step or outlanders. Plenty of stopping power.
