Nope! VW has used the %X112mm bolt pattern on all vans since '71.

Hi,

I bought a set of wheels about a year ago from a very frinedly seller on thesamba.com they are 16x7 konig wheels that came off his 83 waterboxer camper. there is no way they fir on my van - the bolt pattern seems too small, more like 5x110, and the center bore is too small as well. I just contacted the seller and just told him to tell me that they dont fit, so I can stop scratching my head. SO, is there any way an 83 would be different from my 87 westy?

thanks flo

ps: if anyone has some wheels for me not too far from the bay area, let me know. I bought tires already, so i am set on 16" now.
