1989 Volkswagen Vanagon Wheel Fitment Guide — What Works & What to Avoid
Your 1989 Volkswagen Vanagon rolls on a 5x112 bolt pattern with 14x5.5 stock wheels at 39mm offset. You can upgrade to 14x6 or 15x6 sizes while maintaining that same offset spec. Since the Vanagon uses a square, non-staggered setup, all four corners accept identical fitments, giving you straightforward wheel selection across Campmobile, Carat, GL, and Syncro trims.
That 5x112 bolt pattern is exclusive to this vehicle—no exceptions. A 57.1mm hub-centric bore means you'll want to confirm any wheel's center bore matches, or use hub-centric rings if it's larger. Jumping significantly wider or running aggressive offsets invites fender and suspension contact, so stick to the compatible sizes we list and verify offset during checkout.
Every wheel we carry for your Vanagon bolts on securely and ships free to the lower 48 states. Heritage Wheel, Aodhan, Motegi Racing, Work Wheels, and Rotiform 1PC are among the brands ready to transform your classic VW's look.
