Volkswagen Crafter wheel fitment — Ii SYN1E, SYMWE
Volkswagen Crafter wheel fitment
Volkswagen Crafter wheel fitment comes down to two things: the factory hub spec, and how far the aftermarket width and offset can move from it. Both are here for the Volkswagen Crafter (Ii) SYN1E, SYMWE (2016–2019).
| Bolt pattern (PCD) | 5x120 |
| Centre bore | 65.1 mm |
| Bolt / thread | M14x1.5 (bolts) |
| Wheel-bolt torque | 160 Nm |
| Seat type | radius |
| Factory setup | square |
| TPMS | indirect |
Aftermarket wheel sizes — read per position:
| Position | Width | Offset |
|---|---|---|
| Front | 6.5J–8J | ET25–ET60 |
Width and offset move together: roughly 8 to 10 ET more for every extra 1J keeps the wheel inside the arch. Final offset and any spacer come from the fit-check.
