1987 Volkswagen Fox Wheel Fitment Guide — What Works & What to Avoid
Your 1987 Volkswagen Fox uses a 4x100 bolt pattern shared across Base and GL trims. The stock wheel measures 13x5 with a 35-millimeter offset. You can step up to 13x5.5, 14x5.5, or 14x6 sizes while maintaining compatibility. Since this model isn't staggered, you're free to run matching wheels front and rear.
Watch for the 57.1-millimeter center bore on your Fox—wheels with larger bores require hub-centric rings to seat properly. Only 4x100 wheels will fit, so verify your choice matches that bolt pattern exactly. Aggressive offsets or wider widths risk contact with fenders and suspension components, so stay within the compatible sizes listed.
