Recommended Front Applications
1949-79 US Spec Beetles & Karmann Ghias will need a 4 inch narrowed beam to be able to tuck these wheels with drop spindles and disc brakes with 5.125 inch back spacing wheels.
Recommended Rear Applications
1949-65 US Spec Beetles & Karmann Ghias outfitted with short axles will not have to change anything in the rear and will run the 4.625 inch back spacing wheels to create the staggered look. 1966-68 US Spec Beetles will need to run the 5.125 inch back spacing models if the vehicle is currently running long axles in the rear. If you want to run the staggered look in the rear, you can run an 1.250 inch wider fender or change the axles out to the short axles from 49-65. Karmann Ghias can only run the 5.125 inch rear wheels. 1969-79 US Spec Beetles & Super Beetles will need to run the 5.125 inch back spacing models due to the IRS configuration. If you want to run the staggered look in the rear, you can run an 1.250 inch wider fender or change to our I-Arms located here that are 1 inch narrowed.
Type 2 Bus Applications
1955-79 US Type 2 Buses will need 5.125 inch back spacing wheels. Rear applications will need to be the same unless you have installed a short axle configuration in the rear. Then you can run the 4.625 inch back spacing wheels.
Porsche 356 Applications
You can run the 5.125 inch fronts and 4.625 inch rear with out issues on the 356s up to 63.
Type 3 Applications will need 5.125 inch back spacing wheels up front and if outfitted with long axles or IRS, you will need to run the same wheels. If you convert to short axle, you can run the 4.625 inch back spacing wheels.
