Construction and technical parameters of the rim

The rim is made of aluminum, which allows for a favorable strength-to-weight ratio and facilitates precise wheel balancing. The rim width is selected to work with popular tire sizes used in Volkswagen models, ensuring proper tread support and predictable vehicle behavior in corners.

The bolt pattern and diameter of the mounting holes comply with the standard used in many models of this brand, which facilitates installation and allows for the retention of factory mounting points. The applied offset (ET) has been chosen so that the wheel operates within the suspension geometry intended by the manufacturer, without unwanted protrusion of the rim beyond the wheel arch.

Compatibility and application in Volkswagen

The aluminum rim in this variant is intended for Volkswagen vehicles, particularly the Golf series, where maintaining the original handling characteristics is essential. Parameters such as diameter, width, bolt pattern, number of mounting holes, and offset ensure that the rim works well with the factory suspension, braking system, and bodywork.

Thanks to the adherence to manufacturer specifications, the rim allows for trouble-free operation in daily city and extra-urban driving, as well as on long trips. Properly selected dimensions also facilitate subsequent maintenance – balancing, wheel rotation, or selecting tires of recommended sizes.

Appearance, color, and stylistic character

The silver finish of the rim gives the vehicle a subdued, universal look that blends well with both light and dark body paints. This color is practical for daily use while highlighting the aluminum construction and the factory character of the car.

The aluminum rim in this version allows for maintaining the stylistic consistency of the entire car, without an "over-styled" effect. It is a good choice for drivers who want to combine aesthetics with functionality without sacrificing the original look characteristic of Volkswagen models.

Condition, purpose, and benefits of installation

The product is offered as a used aluminum rim, which allows for cost reduction compared to new components while maintaining the original manufacturer specifications. This type of solution is particularly beneficial when replacing a single damaged rim or when completing a set with parameters consistent with factory standards.

Installing a rim with properly selected parameters affects handling stability, the correct operation of safety systems, and even tire wear. Maintaining original dimensions and wheel geometry limits the risk of improper suspension operation and excessive loads on the running gear components.

Configuration expansion and technical knowledge

If you are planning a comprehensive repair or upgrade of the wheel and suspension area in your Volkswagen and need other elements from the same group, such as additional rims, seasonal sets, or replacement wheel configurations, check the available parts in the Volkswagen Wheels category.

When choosing a used aluminum rim, it is worth knowing the basic principles of assessing rim condition, selecting parameters, and regeneration possibilities.
