Pcd clarification for Jetta

[trippyfoo]

Hey,

Feeling like a noodlehead atm .. but I am not too aufaye with the wheel world.
But I've been looking around the different posts and info around here and on the wheels/tyres sections..

I note there's some sections specifying the Golf MkV have a pcd of 5x113 -
Can i assume the Jetta has the same pcd ..or is it 5x100 as advised by a friend..
Any help would be greatly appreciated. ...

Im actively researching options atm - definitely pretty likely - in several weeks time I will have a surplus set of orig oem Jetta Turbo wheels. If anyone is interested. .heh heh.

MK5 Jetta (and Golf) = 5 x 112 with a 50mm ET
MK4 Jetta (And Golf & Polo GTI etc) 5 x 100 ET 35

You will find a lot dealers for rims have the incorrect info regarding the MkV for some reason...I have even had one importer demand my chassis number before i ordered from him!!! Go in armed with the right info...which is as per Guy's advice above.
Definitely 5x112 with a 50-51p

18" R32 wheels have offset of 51, but I'm pretty sure that 17" GTI wheels have an offset of 45.

[Guy_H]

Nominal offset is 50mm - it can vary slightly dependant on rim width

ie: a 45mm offset may work, as may a 55mm, but a 35mm will never work

Thanks heaps for the info..
It's very much appreciated. Will definitely come in handy when it's time to go shopping.
A tad hard atm without the car.
Strangely I'm still compelled to do so for my phantom jetta..
