kebabman 0 Posted September 14, 2005 Bought myself a set of 16" track wheels. £15...and with that touch of bling. :lol: http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll? ... %3AIT&rd=1 Thing is I forgot to check into the PCD/Offset...are they going to fit? Suppose at that price it doesn't really matter...but it'd be nice. :? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

chrishill 0 Posted September 14, 2005 PCD should be right but the offset might not be, i seem to remember them being et42 or something silly? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Kevin Bacon 5 Posted September 14, 2005 The ET on those will be about 35 I reckon, which is fine on the VR. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
chrishill 0 Posted September 14, 2005 http://www.autoguide.net/apf/volkswagen-wheels_rims/new_beetle-catalog.html no specs for the ones you've bought but the 6 spokers further down are et42 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
kebabman 0 Posted September 14, 2005 Thanks guys, I've got a VR. Looking at that link Chris posted, the 15" steels are ET38...but the 16" alloys are 42, weird. How will I know when I pick them up? Just fit them and see if they rub? Can I get spacers to make ET42's fit? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
chrishill 0 Posted September 14, 2005 you could probably ring a dealer and ask TBH! whatever the offset they should still go on, they'll just rub, catch the arches or catch the struts! :lol: cant remember which way around offsets work (it is 5pm) so i'm not sure if you can space them... lower number sits closer to the hub? is that right?

Henny 0 Posted September 14, 2005 lower number sits further out. The reason that the 16" are different offset from the 15" is 'cos the widths are different too... ;) If it's a 42mm offset, you can just lob in a 5mm spacer to make 'em ET38... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
kebabman 0 Posted September 14, 2005 Excellent, I'm a bit crap with wheels, cheers Henny. 8) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
