Hey Guys

i would like to put 5 stud wide wheels on my beetle
currently the stud patern on it is a 4 stud.
reason being are i would like a wheel with noholes in the rim (brake vent holes)
are there any 4 stud wheels that look like the older style 5 stud wheel with no holes ???

you need a 4 to wide 5 stud adaptor plate made
these are illegal in some states but it depends on if you get caught or not
Where are u located

yes. there are 4 stud ones avalible - erco's, ceterlines etc...
but they are not good for brake cooling... thats why the holes are there....
adapters are illiegal and not a good option. you can get new drums and discs drilled to most patterns.
