mk6 wheels have been fitted to mk5's but you should have the wheel centred on the hub -not sure on the boss size on the front but on the back there isnt one so you would need to have the wheel centred on the studs :!: so you would need to pay attention to this when selecting nuts :D

I don't think this information is relevant for six stud wheels like the dude says he has.

Yes post 2000 16" twin wheels will fit - but you may need to drill out the stud holes.

2000 onward use M14 wheel studs, yours will be M16
