I have a 2000 jetta and would like to buy some new rims for it. I do not have alot of money, so I am buying them used. I found a couple of different sets on craigs list, but I do not know what bolt patters will fit, and the sellers do not know either. Please help.

Bear a couple of things in mind when you are replacing rims. One is that it is not just the bolt pattern that matters, but the wheel inset. If the rim is centered differently, too far out it may rub the fenders or too far in it may rub the suspension. Also, changing the inset can cause wheel bearing failures as it changes the leverage on either the inner or outer bearing.
Still another consideration is whether or not the used rims are in round. If they are warped in any way they can vibrate and be hard to balance.
Still another is that if these are after-market rims and you buy four and one later gets damaged by a pothole or the like, are replacements available? You won't be able to go to the dealer for them, and it would be a shame to have one go bad and have to replace the other three because you can't get a match.
