Wide 5 Beetle To Porsche Wheel Adapters (5x205 To 5x130)

Wheel adapters designed to convert classic Volkswagen wide 5 stud hubs from 5×205 PCD to Porsche 5×130 PCD wheels. These adapters are ideal for fitting Porsche style alloy wheels onto early aircooled VW models without changing brake drums or hubs.

Each adapter bolts directly to the original 5×205 hub and is fitted with 14mm x 1.5mm wheel studs ready for Porsche fitment wheels. They are commonly used when fitting Fuchs style wheels or other Porsche pattern alloys to Beetles, Splitscreen Buses, Karmann Ghias, Type 3 models and early Baywindow buses.

Fitting these adapters increases the track width by approximately 25mm per side, so wheel offset and tyre clearance should always be checked before installation. Depending on wheel design, additional wheel nuts or Porsche style fixing hardware may also be required.

Please note these adapters are supplied without wheel nuts or bolts.

Depending on current supplier stock, adapters may be manufactured from either pressed sheet metal or cast aluminium. If you have a preference for a particular style, please contact us before ordering so we can confirm current availability.
