Volkswagen Transporter wheel fitment — T6 7HMA
Overview
The Volkswagen Transporter T6 is the sixth generation of the Volkswagen Transporter vans, succeeding the T5 model. It was manufactured by Volkswagen Commercial Vehicles and assembled in Hannover, Germany; Poznań, Poland; and Kaluga, Russia. The T6 platform retained elements from its predecessor but introduced significant updates such as a new dashboard layout (standard and 'comfort' versions), revised front end styling, LED lighting options, and enhanced driver assistance features. It was available in various body styles including van, minibus, crew cab, chassis cab, and campervan configurations.
Volkswagen Transporter wheel fitment
Volkswagen Transporter wheel fitment for the Volkswagen (T6) 7HMA (2015–2019): the factory PCD, centre bore and bolt spec, then the aftermarket width and offset window we fit to.
| Bolt pattern (PCD) | 5x120 |
| Centre bore | 65.1 mm |
| Bolt / thread | M14x1.5 (bolts) |
| Wheel-bolt torque | 140 Nm |
| Seat type | radius |
| Factory setup | square |
| TPMS | indirect |
Aftermarket wheel sizes — read per position:
| Position | Width | Offset |
|---|---|---|
| Front | 6.5J–9.5J | ET35–ET56 |
As a rule, each extra 1J of width wants roughly +8–10 ET to keep the wheel tucked. The exact offset and any spacer are confirmed by the fit-check.
UK popularity & demand
Based on DfT VEH0124 vehicle-parc data (2025), there are approximately 16,862 Volkswagen Transporter on UK roads, placing it in the top 11% of car models by volume across our fitment database.
That makes Volkswagen Transporter wheel fitment a high-demand spec to keep in stock. It is one reason we track it here.
