I've purchased a set of 19" VW Cantera alloys without wheel fixings (bolts) and centre caps. I'm after the specs for the fixings and caps, can anyone advice ?

Thanks, Adam
 
Wheel bolts are the standard VW alloy/steel wheel bolts.

Wheel caps I never got to the bottom of the exact size when I had a set of Canteras previously.

You really need someone with a set to look at the VW part number on the back of the cap.

Oh, and if you'd rather not use the wheels - you know as they have no caps, then please sell them to me as I am looking for another set right now :thumbsup:

Thanks for the info @t6blo & @Ltrain - appreciated.

Ref selling them I've invested weeks of (wasted) screen time choosing a set, I aren't giving them up that quickly. Next mission powder coating them .....

No worries @AK06FR .
What colour powder you going for?

I was quite happy with the silver on my previous set. Not sure what to do when I eventually find another set :unsure:

They look great.

My 6.1 is Indium grey and I have gloss black alloys that look great until you drive for 5mins. So I was thinking Satin Black to hide the grime. Decisions decisions ..??? I bought them from Germany so I have little time to decide.

I quite like the idea of a darker silver/gun metal colour on an indium grey van :cool:
 
Are people running spacers with their Cantera wheels?

Looking on the "will they fit" websites I'm going need approx 15mm spacers to get the same looked as my 1Form Edition.1 (19/ 9.5/48). I think I read somewhere on the forum 30mm spacers but that sounds a bit extreme.

Any pics with and without spacers fitted would be great to see. Might save another purchase .....
 
You don’t technically need spacers but the rear wheel could benefit from a 15mm to bring the wheel out flush with the arch.

I didn’t run any spacers on my previous set but if I manage to track down another set will be putting the spacer on.

Thanks for that. Once I have them I can have a play. I'm sure it will end badly, and involve more ££
 
Looking good.

Someone should create a wheel / van application for the site so we can compare wheels against van colours, suspension drops, etc ......

That's a great idea! My van is Indium Grey too and I'm looking for some 19's for summer wheels - black is definitely the best match but I really fancy bronze (but I'm not sure it'll really look good with the grey!!)
