When the tyres are off there are normally markings on the inside of the rim..

there were many different offsets for standard wheels over the years and models.
type 3 used as far as I know across production 4.5" x 15, ET 45mm. that is for all 4 stud type 3.
beetles had many offsets, normally much less than type 3. I don't know the numbers though as i don't have a beetle.
