Hollander Manual for O.E.M. wheels.

[Sharky196]

I have one of these manuals. It covers wheels through 1994. For those of you that don't know what this is. It's a cross reference manual (that I believe was mainly supplied to wrecking yards) that gives all the specs on factory wheels. Bolt patterns,offset,width,and in some cases, hub dia. It also shows pics of the different style wheels that were available on each particular automobile. According to the manual (4 x 100mm. And staying within a 40 to 45 mm. range) there is a small selection of factory wheels that will fit our cars.
So...... If anyone has a particular wheel in question; pm me and I can look it up and tell you what the specs are in the manual. I need the make, model, and yr. of car that the wheel was originally on. This manual covers foriegn and domestic, but keep in mind, only factory wheels through 1994.

Hmm.... I'd be interested in the VW wheels.. I believe the teardrop wheels were off the Jetta and GTi. any infor on those wheels? the years are probly 90-92?

VW wheels usually have 35 mm offsets so we can't use them.

Those wheels have a 35 mm offset, so thats a no go! The only vw wheels listed that will fit our cars are from the scirroco, dasher,rabbit....1984-85. And those are 38 mm; so the fender lips would have to be rolled to even use those. Cole

Yeah....I'll try to get a list together and post it up tomorrow. There are some wheels from mazda,audi,ford,mercury, that are 4x100mm and 45mm offset. I could even take pics of the pages that show those wheels. I'll see how they turn out.

Ok guy's....Here's a list of factory non-honda wheel's that are 4X100mm-45mm offset:

Audi coupe: 1982-84 14X6 16 spoke alloy.

Audi 4000: 1984-87 14X6 16 spoke alloy;1984 13X5 8 hole alloy.

Ford Escort: 1992-93 14X5-1/2 11 spoke alloy;1992 15X5-1/2 5 fan blade directional alloy;1993 15X5-1/2 5 spoke directional alloy; 14X5-1/2 7 spoke alloy;1994 15X5-1/2 7 round spoke(w/center cap) alloy.

Mercury Tracer: 1991-93 14X5-1/2 8 spoke directional alloy;1994 14X5-1/2 7 twin spoke directional alloy.

Mazda 323: 1990-94 13X5 12 hole stamped steel (w/center cap); 13X5 16 hole alloy.

Mazda MX3: 1992-94 14X5-1/2 8 hole stamped steel; 14X5 6 spoke alloy.

Mazda MX5 Miata: 1990-94 14X5-1/2 7 spoke (w/center cap) alloy; 1990-94 8 hole stamped steel.

Mazda Protege: 1990-92 14X5-1/2 7 spoke alloy; 1990-94 14X5-1/2 8 hole stamped steel; 13X5 12 hole (w/center cap) stamped steel.

VW Scirocco: 1975-81 13X5 12 hole alloy: NOTE: This wheel can also be found on the Dasher 74-81,Fox 87-88,Jetta 81 only,Rabbit 75-81.

Ok; Those are the one's that will fit w/no modifications. The following wheels are 4X100 mm, w/38 mm offset, and may fit without modification, depending on width; but chances are that you'll have to roll the fender lip's to keep them from rubbing.

VW Cabriolet convertible: 1985 13X5-1/2 9 spoke alloy; NOTE: This wheel could also be found on the Fox 89-92, Jetta 81 only,Scirocco 82-85.

VW Cabriolet Convertible: 1986-88 13X5-1/2 7 spoke alloy; NOTE: This wheel could also be found on the Fox 87-92, Golf 85-91,Jetta 86-88 and 90-91, Quantum 86-88 2WD (exc. Syncro), Scirocco 86-88

VW Jetta: 1987-92 14X6 8 teardrop hole alloy; NOTE: This wheel could also be found on the Cabriolet Convertible 88-93, Golf 87-92, Scirocco 87-88.

Now......I know there are alot of other wheels from other cars that had 4X100mm during some yrs (Saturn,Plymouth,BMW,Geo,Toyota,Hyundai,Renault,Is uzu ect.) But the offset's were all different; and I'm not saying that they could'nt work. But most likely they wont.

And most important! Please make sure that the wheel's want will fit your car before you purchase them, so you don't get burned. This list is only a guide: Not a guarantee. Happy hunting. Cole
