1987 Volkswagen Vanagon Wheel Fitment Guide — What Works & What to Avoid
Your 1987 Volkswagen Vanagon, whether Campmobile, GL, or Syncro trim, accepts wheels on a 5x112 bolt pattern. The stock setup runs 14x5.5 with a 39mm offset. You can step up to 14x6 or 15x6 sizes while maintaining that same offset, giving you flexibility without frame or suspension conflict.
Keep in mind that only the 5x112 bolt pattern will fit this van—no exceptions across trims. Your center bore measures 57.1mm, so you'll want hub-centric rings if your new wheels have a larger bore. Avoid pushing offset too aggressive or overall width beyond what we offer, as the Vanagon's fenders and suspension geometry have tight tolerances around the wheel well.
Every wheel we stock for your Vanagon is verified to bolt on and ships free to the lower 48 states. We carry Heritage Wheel, Aodhan, Motegi Racing, Work Wheels, Niche 1PC, Petrol, Rotiform 1PC, and MRR—all ready to ship.
