why don't 92 snowflakes fit a 85 golf

[Newk1]

I'm confused, I thought that they would fit. We have a little project car and saw a 92 cab at a salvage yard. Then checked on eBay and the same type stated they aren't compatible.

Should be the same 4X100 bolt and hub bore. Have you cleaned corrosion off of both wheel and hub? I have wheels on out 94 Golf that were once on an 80 Scirocco, an 80 Rabbit and an 87 GLI.

They should be the same. I've used 13" Rabbit wheels on my 1995 Golf and 1998 Golf wheels on my 85 Jetta.

I don't know what they were thinking, but I put them on and they look good. Unfortunately the tires aren't safe for the road. Dry rot, cut in the sidewall,and the last one a big bubble popping out. They made me pay for them anyway. I separated them from the rims and got some of my money back. Oh well, back to the list.
