Frequently Asked Questions

Q: What is a dual bolt pattern wheel?
A: A dual bolt pattern wheel is drilled with two overlapping lug hole patterns so the same wheel can mount on vehicles using either bolt pattern. STAFG-88551+35 is drilled for both 5x112 and 5x120, which means it fits VW/Audi platforms and BMW/Chevy platforms from a single part number.

Q: Does the dual drilling weaken the wheel?
A: No. The lug hole locations are engineered so that the structural load paths remain intact. The 1,600 lb load rating confirms this wheel meets strength certification regardless of which bolt pattern is used.

Q: What hub-centric rings do I need for a VW Golf GTI?
A: VW Golf GTI MK7/MK8 hubs are 57.1mm. You will need hub-centric rings that step down from 73.1mm to 57.1mm.

Q: What hub-centric rings do I need for a BMW F30 3 Series?
A: BMW F30 hubs are 72.6mm. Rings stepping from 73.1mm to 72.6mm are a very minimal gap and are still recommended to prevent any vibration.

Q: Does STAFG-88551+35 fit the Toyota GR Supra?
A: Yes. The 2021 and newer GR Supra uses a 5x112 bolt pattern. Hub-centric rings from 73.1mm to 56.1mm are needed.

Q: What lug nuts are needed for the Camaro with 5x120?
A: The Chevrolet Camaro uses 12x1.5 lug nuts. Use acorn-style lug nuts with an appropriate seat angle.

Q: Is STAFG-88551+35 available in other finishes?
