Are NB wheels the same as Mk5 Golf??

ie 100PCD??

What ET should i be looking for??

Have seen some Audi wheels on a Caddy that looked the goods

XXX-1.8T 路

beetle are same as TT/S3 or Mk4 golf 5 x 100 馃檪

Bizarre 路

So you reckon the offset of a set of TT would work??

Bizarre 路

Costa

Seen TT wheels in 16" and 17" x 7.5"

Any idea what the 16" width would be??
ET forr either??

XXX-1.8T 路

The offset of TT would match it perfectly.

I think the 16's are 16 x 7

ET would be the same i'd go the 17's!

Doing a 16" copy of the TT with rubber for $750 a set??

The car i am getting comes with 16" 205/55
So i am right-ish for rubber

Then again that is the size for my betle as well - so 17's could be the go

When does your wife get the new beetle barry??

offset depends upon the year.
if you are looking new then it has changed from previous years.
if possible i would definitely try them on the car before buying... as we found out that VW offset for new beetles really limits the wheels you can put on.
think up until 2004 model they were a +38 then went to a +35.
but check with VW dealership with the VIN # and they will be able to tell you what the offset is.

I think you may find that golf V are 5x112
same as T3, T4, and Passat
golf IV rims will not fit.
Caddy and Polo are 5x100
older Polo and golf 1, 2, and 3 are 4x100

incorrect Golf 4 rims WILL fit a NB

NB = 5 x 100

golf IV rims dont fit on a golf v
just to make it easy for you,
golf 4 rims don't fit on a golf 5

OK. Now I'm getting confused.
Are you saying Costa is correct that the golf 4 rims will fit the new beetle because they won't fit on a golf 5
or are you saying neither golf 4 or 5 will fit the beetle because they are both different.

I believe Costa is saying that the golf 4 mags will fit a NB, but the golf 5 wheels will not?

Yes correct!

Golf IV, NB, A3, S3, and TT = 5 x 100

Golf V = 5 x 112

馃槀

vwtyp2 路

OK,
what Bizarre originally asked is "are NB rims same as Golf V". Iassumed he wanted to put some NB rims on a Golf V.
My reply was that "Golf IV rims will not fit". Meaning that Golf IV rims will not fit a Golf V

clear as mud. 馃

XXX-1.8T 路

ok excellent glad we got that sorted so Baz what wheels did you end up getting?

BTW i got some 18" S3 wheels - 5 x 112 that im selling soon so these would suit golf 5 as the new S3 is same stud pattern as golf 5 馃檪

Bizarre 路

OK - to clarify things
I need 5 x100 for a NB that the wife is getting

Just waiting at the moment
