Volk Wheels

[BoostinonYOU]

I have a question I know our cars bolt pattern is 5 x 112 but will a 5 x 100 or 5 x 114.3 fit ? The reason being im about to drop 3k on wheels and tires, the volk GT-M or volk ce28 both of which i can get on a 35 or 33 offset, and does anyone know what the heck the offset means anyways ? Please help !!__!!

I would try to find something in a 5x112 bolt pattern if I were you. There are adapters out there to go from 5x100 to 5x112 but I've yet to personally see anyone use them. As for offset, the general consensus is 32-35mm for most plus sized set-ups

Not sure if you went this route yet, but try to find Volk's Japanese website, they actually list some of their euro fitments. Not all wheels are available in the 5x112, but many are offered in 5x112 with 32-35 mm offsets. If you've been to the US distributors site, Mackin Industries, they only list the import applications.

[BB2001S4:Tim]

the 5 implies the # of bolts (which Im sure we all know) and the 112 is the measurement seen here on the 5 bolt pattern pic



So if you were to measure from the back of the hole to the center of the 2nd hole on our stock wheels you will get a measurement of 112 mm or about 4.4 inches

lots of vw guys use adaptors but they're usually in 25+mm spacer setups. so youd need like a 15 offset wheel to make it right i think

Its actually the other way arround...you will need a hight et to make that wheel adapter to work...say a wheel 8.5 inches in width with an et of 50 to make sure the wheel wont poke out too much. The lower the et the more clearence you will have for bigger breaks but the more your wheel stick out from the hub which will stick out the wheel well.

You still live in Hawaii?

5 x 114.3 wont fit.You will need custom hubs...i.e. take your 4 hubs to a machine shop and have them put in studs in a 114.3mm diameter.This is what Jeremy@Matrix did for my A4 in order to run the Volk SE37K's.

come to find out it was a typo on the website, How would 18 x 8 with a +50 offset look ? any issues with this wheel clearance/ poke out ???? Please i know some of you are wizards at this stuff !!__!!

the wheel is a Volk CE28N 5x112 18x8 +50

With a +50 offset, you might run into clearance problems like the inner part of the rim might hit suspension parts.

*edit unknowna4 already cited this^ .. my bad*

what about 18x8 with an offset of 32 or 35 would those be okay ?
And would a 19x9 with those same offsets be a problem ?

Here is a wheel offset calculator...
