1989 Volkswagen Fox Wheel Fitment Guide — What Works & What to Avoid
Your 1989 Volkswagen Fox uses a 4x100 bolt pattern, shared across Base, GL, and GL Sport trims. The stock wheel measures 13x5 with a 35-millimeter offset. You can fit 13x5.5, 14x5.5, or 14x6 wheels on this chassis, all maintaining square fitment—no staggered setup needed here. These plus-sizes deliver a more modern look while keeping your Fox balanced front to rear.
Only wheels with a 4x100 bolt pattern will fit your Fox; nothing else will thread on safely. Your hub bore measures 57.1 millimeters, so use hub-centric rings if your wheel's center bore is larger—this keeps everything centered and smooth. Going significantly wider or running an offset too aggressive risks contact with fenders or suspension geometry, so stick within the compatible sizes we've verified.
Every wheel listed here bolts on directly and ships free throughout the lower 48 states. Vors, Work Wheels, Enkei, and Heritage Wheel all stock fitments for your Fox right now, giving you proven styles and quality to choose from.
