My mother's 06 TDI Beetle came with 17" 5 spoke wheels, and all-season tires. I was thinking if she downsized to 16" wheels and threw some winter tires on, she would be much better off this winter.
I was hoping to mount the wheels seen below. They are off a 2005 GTI. In my understanding, New Beetles are 5 x 100 and have a 35et Offset. These wheels are 5 x 100 too, but I think they are 42et offset. Is that too high of an offset for the New Beetles??? I was just hoping to find a solid answer if it will work. Thanks!
