gidday...

lookin' for some wheels to fit VR6, probably 17z....and on the cheap,

what stud pattern does a VR6 have?

will mk 5 wheels fit?

what other common audi/vw/anythign else stock wheels fit...u know somethign i might find cheap on ebay as ppl upgrade thier factory mags.

vr6 = 5x100 with approx 30 offset
mk5 = 5x112 with approx 50 offset

no go unless you redrill or get adaptors.

awsome, tks for fast reply....what about the center hole, are there usually problems? i.e is it unusually big on the VR6?

all vw centrebores should be 57.1

and what if the offset is a bit bigger than 30? no probs right as long as the wheels fit in the gaurds?

how wide rubber can you go with a standard vr6 before u start scrubbing out people?

if you go too high offset the wheels will sit too far in under the guards and will most probably not fit due to hitting your suspension strut. you can use spacers to lower the offset and push them out a bit more.
