[kenfyoozed]

ok i bought some 15 x 6 5spoke new vw wheels off ebay. they came in today. when i fliped them over and looked at the casting marks i find m16. i then measured the rims and they seem t measure 16 x 7. what gives? are these truly 16 x 7 wheels? how can i find the et and bolt patern? should i keep these or send them back? only paid 250 and tey are in great shape. i measured the back sopacing and looks like 5 inches, to much? what should i do im lost?

The 15" diameter is mesured from bead surface to bead surface, not across the front of the rim. I have a set of riviera rims that are 15" x 5.5", and they measure 16" across with 4" of back spacing. hope this helps.
