Bolt pattern conversion 5x1x0 to 4x100

[btpeet at effervescent.com (Bradley Peet)]

I wouldn't modify the wheels.  Eurospec has 5x100 conversion hubs for the
front for $50 each.  I ordered them from Mark@Adirondack but you can
probably order direct from Eurospec.  New 5 bolt rear discs will take care
of things on the back end.  I did this on my B3 Passat so I could fit BBS RC
wheels.  Not cheap but cheaper than a set of new RCs!  Sometimes you'll find
deals on 15" and 16" wheels in 5x100 because most people with 5 bolt cars
want 17s or bigger these days.  16" is ideal for a Scirocco if you want to
run 215/40/16 rubber (maintains correct diameter, revs per mile).

Good luck.
