Title: MK5 wheels on MK3?
Post by: losthaplot on 25 July 2005, 01:45
I was wondering whether it would be possible to fit some mk5 golf gti alloys (5 stud) on my mk3 golf (5 stud) and would I face any problems???

Anyone done this before??

Any info would be great...

thanks

Check out this link, it will tell you what size your wheels are and the other wheels.

you can then see if they are the same!

you'd need adaptors, vw didn't continue the 5x100 pcd from the mk3/mk4 over onto the mk5 .. pretty sure its 5x112 (audi/lamborghini fitment)
