Update: Spoke with Lanner today. He's machined a hat from "scrap metal" just to check out the offset he'll need for the hat to be ordered from Wilwood. Looks like we'll have something done in the next week.

Another boring update: Hats came in from Wilwood with the offset Lanner specified and I've sent one off again today. Should be in the final stretch within about 3 weeks.

Lanner got the hat. Like a dumb a$$ I only sent him one, like I did with the rotor and caliper, but he needs to machine them both! He did figure that we can do a dual pattern on the hat and hub though, 5x130 for Porsche and 5X100 or 112, we havn't figured out yet, for new VW. Lanner says that the new VW stuff has offsets of around 50, in the Porsche range, so hopefully I'll be able to get cheap VW aftermarket wheels shortly, as compared to fewer choices and higher cost of P car stuff.

Does anyone know what the new VW stuff wheel bolt pattern is?

5x100, same as Audi TT but not the rest of the Audis. I've got a set of NewBeetle Turbo S wheels in the shop if you need any measurments from them... or maybe you want the set?
(they actually belong to a buddy of mine and he WAY overpaid for them, $600 )

I'm talking bout the MkV not the MkIV. Lanner says the MkV is actually different than the MkIV. He knows the MkIV is 5x100, but he thinks the MkV might be 5x112 or something. It's the brand new Rabbit that he's talking about. Do you think it's the same?

He's right, all A5 cars are 5x112
