Volkswagen Transporter wheel fitment — T6 7J0
Volkswagen Transporter wheel fitment
Volkswagen Transporter 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 (T6) 7J0 (2015–2022).
| 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 |
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.
