vanagon is 5x112.     way off there buddy :<)
Not quite accurate, Chris, et al.

The Sciroccos if stock only came in 4 x 100mm bolt pattern. The 6-cyl cars
such as the Corrado, Passat, Jettas and GTi's are 5 x 100mm. Vanagons & Eurovans
have 5 x 112mm patterns.

The 98-later Passats are now 5 x 112mm as the T4 & T5 vans and trucks. All
the other cars like New Beetles, Jetta/Golf are on 5 x 100mm. Some smaller cars
like the in non-US markets retain the 4 x 100mm pattern. The lonely exception
is the Toureg which has a Porsche pattern like the Cayenne. They sport 5 x
130mm bolt patterns.

I hope this helps.
