G'day all,

I tried searching here but can't find any definitive answer one way or the other, so hopefully someone smarter than I can help me out...

I've got a 2008 Caddy van, which appears to be the front half of a MkV Golf with a small UStowIt attached to the back. Does anyone know for sure whether MkV Golf wheels will fit the Caddy van or if it uses a different stud pattern altogether?

I am aware of the consideration of load ratings given it's a commercial-style vehicle rather than a passenger car, but I haven't been able to find out for sure what wheels I need to look for.

Thanks!

yes, wheels that fit a mkv golf will fit a caddy :)

preeny and myself have the same wheels just in case you dont believe me :P

you want 5x112 ET50 and preferably no more than 8.5" wide on the front :) the wheels you see are 17x8.5 ET50

Mischa,

Many thanks for your really prompt reply - just what I was hoping for.

Now to find a new set of wheels...

I have used this site from ausalfa.com,

Essentially it is a disk brake manufacturer but it provides PCD's and stuff.

So in theory it will also let you know what Audi and skoda wheels fit as well.
