Currently have stock four stud and stock steelies. This is what i would like achieve.
you can have your hubs re drilled to suit 130 5 studs and the later FUCHs wheels 6 x 15 will fit nice you may need to get some new rear hubs that are thicker to take the studs and be safe
I read it on FACEBOOK so it must be true

The wheels on my Ghia on the front are 6" x 17" with a ET of 55MM, on the back they are 7" x 17" with a ET of 23MM , the Ghis is link pin front and IRS rear, these wheels were made by Image wheels in the UK, There is no need to narrow the beam as this causes other issues with Bump steer, changes the scrub radius and increases wear on the front end, the beam in my car is standard with no issues, you could convert the rear brakes to type 3 drums and use http://www.vwispwest.com/GA-501581P.html to give you the Porsche stud pattern, I also have a type 34 with Boxter wheels and these fit perfectly, those sizes are 16" x 6" with a ET of 55MM on the front, same on the rear.
