5x112 stud pattern on a beetle?

Thinking of new wheels on my kombi and putting its wheels on my beetle. It doesn't seem like a common conversion. Any reason for this? Et is 40 for both so should be ok in my mind. Am I missing anything?

i changed to the kombi pattern on my Baja when i went disc brake. I have seen a few bajas with this done.

5x112 is only Merc and some watercooled VW/Audi so limited wheel choice is the main reason you don't see it much.

With the offset what model Beetle is it going on and what size rim and tyre?

i changed to that pattern mainly because i had a chance to buy the wheels cheapish and the 17x7 offset 36mm would work on L bug.

Yes it's a 76 beetle. I have 17in brm wheels on the kombi but thinking of going with some chrome 911 style rims.
