Default 09 jetta wheels on a 01 gs430??

Hi

i have someone with a set of tsw vairana on an 09 jetta his wheel fitment is 5x112 while my gs is 5x114.3 he is 30 miles away so i don't want to travel there unless i know they will fit.


Does anyone know if these will fit or if i will need adapters??


Thanks

The bolt pattern is different to begin with, so using an adapter creates it's own problems. The biggest issue is the center bore of the wheel the center bore of the VW wheel is too small to even fit on over the hub of the 01' Lexus GS.

i just remember something in as to what zig@tr said it doesnt matter cause when you order the spacer your going from one bolt pattern to another and bore size too on the spacer and some company maybe aware of this just a suggestion
