I have a lead on obtaining 18-spoke VW GTI rims. They are 18"x7.5 with a 5 lug x 100 pattern and an offset of 38.
Assuming that I have converted to 5-lug hubs, will these VW GTI rims fit? I still need to factor in flaring the fenders, assumming that the rims can even be used. What is the standard offset on a 914? What is the offset after conversion to 911 hubs? What is the lug spacing on 911 hubs? |

4x130 and 5x130 hubs can use the same offset rims....your only realy option is to run 5x130 to 5x100 adapters....not a cheap solution at all unless those GTI rims are darn near free.... |
