I need someone to explain something to me. I met this girl last week in her GLI and she had M3 wheels on her Jetta. I thought it looked sick so i said...ima do that too. But...i've been looking online and it's stating that the M3 wheels are 5x120 and everyone on here knows that the MK4 Jettas are 5x100. How did she do it? Is it a conversion kit or something? If so where do i get it? Help me out people! Just send me a PM or if you get around to it today (October 13th) hit me up at Parkerij@cvn76.navy.mil other wise just leave me thread...thanks kids!

either they are replicas, redrills, adapters or custom hubs......you need to know sizes and how offsets relate to that to know whether a wheel will work

Here are the specs on the BMW wheels they are running. They most likely had to run a spacer in the front.

19 x 8 +47 offset front
19 x 9.5 +27 offset rear

what size adapters did you use?

20mm upfront, 0mm out back http://www.vwvortex.com/zeroforum_graphics/biggrin_upper.gif

ok, so what did you do or is it a secret?


Quote, originally posted by SAVwKO
Adapters in the front, and custom made hubs for the rear. We were able to keep the final offset the same on the rear wheels.

i want to see a pic of said hubs

And that's where the info stops. http://www.vwvortex.com/vwbb/wink.gif At the end of the show season this year I'll bring em back. I had em in my build threads for awhile but decided to take em down.
