EMPI's 15x5.5" Chrome Plated Aluminum BRM Wheel has a 5x112 VW lug pattern and includes a Chrome Plated Center Cap with BRM Logo and Chrome capped Valve Stem. VW used the 5x112 lug pattern on 1971 through 1979 Type 2 Bus models. EMPI's chrome wheels are triple chrome dipped (not sprayed) for durability and shine. The offset or ET of the aluminum wheel is 12mm, the back spacing is 3 5/8"and the 5x112 drilled pattern requires 60 degree conical seat lug nuts or lug bolts. The wheel is manufactured by EMPI with state of the art high quality machining and finishing.

Once a tire has been mounted to the wheel, the wheel can not be returned! Check for fitment before installing tires and have your tire shop check that the wheel is true (straight) before they install the tires!

Chrome Maintenance and What to Expect:

We put this notice on all chrome products, regardless of manufacturer, or origin.

Chrome plating is an electro-plating process that is highly regulated due to the environmental impacts of the chemicals, metals, and the exhaust gasses released during the process.

We highly recommend maintaining any chrome on your vehicle by applying a car wax or detailing spray on a regular basis

Here are some additional tips:

  • Hubcaps - Spray paint the inside with paint or rust inhibitor, wax chrome finish regularly
  • Bumpers - Spray paint the inside with paint or rust inhibitor, wax chrome finish regularly
  • Exterior Mirrors - Lightly wax chrome finish regularly
  • Exterior Chrome Trim - Lightly wax chrome finish regularly

If you properly maintain the chrome and keep your car stored in a dry, non-salty-air environment, the chrome will last.
