These wheels are from a ‘99 Passat, not sure of the base model.
Bore opened to 66.56 and Small Ball Lug nuts from T3Technique or otisincla.com Since having these wheels for 10 years now, they have been great. Ive thought that some day, maybe, Id get longer studs and put in a 5mm spacer to get rid of the sway bar rub, and open the stance up a bit. But its not needed,
I also went to the 215 75 15 Yokohama Geolander AT and they are nice and stiff and dont really rub any more than before.
