VW Bug Wheels & Wheel Accessories

Buy your VW Bug wheels here!

It’s fair to say that the most commonly changed part of Volkswagen Bugs across the world is the wheels and VW Heritage are the VW Bug wheel experts, offering a wide range of wheels for all air cooled Volkswagen Bug models, along with free expert advice on compatibility, fitting and finish. Starting with the most basic, our range of classic Bug wheels begins with OE (original equipment) Bug steel wheels to retain that classic stock look. From there though, the world is your oyster. While we appreciate that just about any wheel can be made to fit, given enough time and effort, we at VW Heritage have chosen to focus on an extensive selection of aftermarket VW Bug alloy wheels that we know do fit, without any significant modification and offer a more personalised style. To browse or buy the parts you need just follow the links above, or read on for further information on our incredible selection of VW Bug wheels.

Know your VW Bug wheels

Once again, it is important to know what type of wheel you have on your Bug. More correctly, what type of VW Bug wheel bolt pattern. All Bugs built up until 1967 used the ‘wide five’ bolt pattern (that’s a 5-bolt wheel with a 5 x 205mm pitch circle diameter (PCD)). With the introduction of disc brakes on the 1500 model only came a change to a smaller wheel bolt pattern with only four bolts (4 x 130mm PCD). All Bugs from 1968 onwards were fitted with four-bolt wheels.

Though the style of Bug steel wheel sometimes changed, the bolt pattern did not and all are interchangeable. However, it's easy to fit other types of wheel to both 4 and 5-bolt VW hubs by using parts from our range of re-drilled discs and drums, Bug PCD adapters and spacers so it is not uncommon to find Bugs fitted with Porsche (5 x 130PCD) wheels. If you are at all unsure what you have, check with one of our knowledgeable sales staff and we’ll find the Bug PCD adapters for you.

Original equipment VW Bug steel wheels

Our range of OE-style steel Bug wheels includes both early 5-stud (Porsche 356 style) and later 4-stud (stock Bug) versions in different widths. Available in both painted steel and fully chromed. These wheels accept all stock and aftermarket VW and Porsche-style hubcaps, as well as VW Bug wheel trim rings.

At VW Heritage we hold in stock all the most desirable aftermarket VW Bug alloys, including BRM, Fuchs, EMPI 5, EMPI 8, Sprintstar, Porsche 2.0-litre, Enkei and ATS styles. What’s more, we have many of these popular designs of Bug rim produced exclusively for us, reconfigured to better fit classic Volkswagen Bugs and, in some cases, to last longer than the originals.

VW Bug wheel accessories

Aside from the VW Bug wheels themselves, we stock a huge selection of classic Bug trim rings, Bug hubcaps, centre caps, whitewall flaps, bolt caps and clips and rivets. We also know how important it is that you use the correct type of wheel nut with whatever style of VW Bug rim you choose so stock every size and type of Volkswagen Bug wheel bolt and classic Bug wheel stud you could need to fit any of the range of Volkswagen Bug rims we sell, including stock-style wheel bolts ‘tuner nuts’, mag nuts, tapered nuts and Thatcham-approved locking wheel nuts / bolts. If there’s a set of Bug rims you like the look of, but they aren’t available in your wheel bolt pattern, be sure to check out our wide range of VW Bug wheel adaptors and spacers.
