I'm a newb on here, newb to VW's (since my 69' Beetle). Other forums I'm on have an "Official Wheel Fitment Thread". I searched but only found fitments mentioned in the 'Errmagerrd Neewwrb Qwerstshuns!'
Anyhow, maybe this can be made into a sticky or added to the DIY/All things you should know threads.
What is OEM wheels measurements (all trims)? Can people post up what they are running and how they fit?
Bolt pattern is 5x112 (easy, we know this), but what's OE width and offset? 16 x 7"? offset of +42mm?
OE Wheels are Hub centric and 57.1mm
Hope this helps others besides me
