I have a friend who wants to sell me his winter tires and rims from his 1986 Golf GTI. The tires are 14".

My 2000 Golf has 15" tires (I think; whatever comes standard). Will these rims fit on my Golf? Has VW changed the wheel (bolt) pattern on the tires between those two models?

<font size="2" face="Verdana, Helvetica, sans-serif">Matt, no good. 4 lug pattern on the 1986 and 5 lug pattern on the new cars. Even if they did have the same pattern, I doubt the wheel would clear the brake rotor on your Golf. The parts are of no value to you.
