If you get the part number from the wheels and take it to a vw dealer they should be able to find out what caps you need

To me it looks like you need these ones

They have part numbers on that link for the wheels they fit so check them against your wheels

They look like bbs RJ's so you need the 3 piece caps as fitted to bbs RM's

There are two different diameters of those caps, those wheels need the larger diameter. I think one's 4" and the other's 5", although don't quote me on that.
