Thanks to all who replied about the Passat wheels fitting the Audi big brakes. I am planning on using the Audi 100/5000 setup like Van Cafe sells. Since they come from Audis with 15"s, I assume they will work on the Passat wheels. I was just wondering if anyone had actually tried them. I guess the next question is whether or not the Passat wheels are strong enough to hold up a loaded Syncro Westy. Anyone using these on a Westy?
