1986 Volkswagen Quantum Wheel Fitment Guide — What Works & What to Avoid
Your 1986 Volkswagen Quantum bolts on 4x100, the factory configuration that all three trims share. The stock wheel measures 13x5.5 with a 35-millimeter offset. You can upsize to 13x6, 14x5.5, 14x6, or 15x6.5 while staying compatible. Since this model isn't staggered, any of these sizes work front and rear alike.
Remember that only 4x100 bolts fit your Quantum—other patterns won't work. Your hub measures 57.1 millimeters; if you choose a wheel with a larger center bore, install hub-centric rings to center it properly. Aggressive offsets or excessively wide wheels risk rubbing against fenders or suspension components, so stick within the compatible sizes listed.
Every wheel we stock for your Quantum is verified to bolt on and ships free across the lower 48 states. We carry Vors, Heritage Wheel, Work Wheels, Motegi Racing, MST Wheels, Petrol, Enkei, and Shift in fitments that match your car.
