I am starting to look for wheels for my 1972 fatback . What rim/lug nut spacing specs should I be looking for.
No to theVW scene. Some hand holding would be appreciated.
I would like to get some meaty tires on the front and back. Staggered?

There's a limit to how big of tires will fit a Type 3!
Wheel choice is critical.
You want a flat faced wheel rather than deep dish.
I have 185x60 & 205x70 on 2.0 liter Mobelwagen wheels on my lowered squareback. _________________ https://imgur.com/user/FisherSquareback/posts
