the vanagon carat wheels and the audi 5000 wheels are VERY different. its like calling them carat honda wheels. remember most audi 5000's were NOT turbos, therefore they were 4 lug, 14". the 5000 turbos were same bolt pattern as vanagon, but different offset, 15" not 14" like the vanagon carat, different look, etc.

just call them carat wheels. people know what youre talking about.
