VW Bolt Patterns

[Eric @ TIRE RACK]

The bolt pattern or bolt circle is the diameter of an imaginary
circle formed by the centers of the wheel lugs. Bolt patterns
can be 4, 5, 6, or 8 lug holes. A bolt circle of 4x100 would
indicate a 4 lug pattern on a circle with a diameter of 100mm.

The diagram indicates the proper measuring methods.
6 lug wheels are measured like the 4 lug wheels.
