1986 Volkswagen Vanagon Wheel Fitment Guide — What Works & What to Avoid
Your 1986 Volkswagen Vanagon fastens wheels with a 5x112 bolt pattern. The stock setup runs 14x5.5 inches at a 39mm offset. You can step up to 14x6 or 15x6 sizes while maintaining the same square fitment across all four corners. This van accepts wheels that match its specifications without requiring staggered configurations.
The 5x112 bolt pattern is the only pattern that will work on your Vanagon, so verify fitment before ordering. Your hub measures 57.1mm, so use hub-centric rings if you choose a wheel with a larger center bore. Aggressive offsets or significantly wider wheels risk contact with fenders and suspension components, so stick with the compatible sizes listed to avoid clearance issues.
Every wheel we stock for your 1986 Vanagon is confirmed to bolt on properly and ships free throughout the lower 48 states. Heritage Wheel, Aodhan, Motegi Racing, Work Wheels, and several other quality brands are ready to ship to your door.
