1987 Volkswagen Cabriolet Wheel Fitment Guide — What Works & What to Avoid
Your 1987 Volkswagen Cabriolet uses a 4x100 bolt pattern with a 57.1mm center bore. The stock wheel is 13x5 with a 35mm offset. You can step up to 13x5.5, 13x6, 14x5.5, 14x6, 15x6, or 15x6.5—plenty of room to customize your look without sacrificing fitment or performance on this classic ride.
Keep in mind that only 4x100 wheels will bolt on; verify your choice before purchasing. Since your car uses a hub-centric design, use hub-centric rings if you select a wheel with a larger center bore than 57.1mm. Going significantly wider or running aggressive offsets risks interference with fenders and suspension components, so stick within the compatible size range we've listed.
Every wheel in our fitment database ships free to the lower 48 states and is guaranteed to bolt on your Cabriolet. We stock options from Vors, Heritage Wheel, Work Wheels, Motegi Racing, MST Wheels, Petrol, Enkei, and Shift—all ready to ship.
