Default Fitting aftermarket wheels to 2012 Beetle

Am awaiting delivery of a 2012 Turbo Beetle with
8 X 18 Twister alloy wheels. Does anyone know the
proper measurement of the hub center bore ? Was
told the offset is ET 48 and the bolt pattern 5 X 112
but have not been able to learn the hub center bore
measurement. Have seen 57.1 listed for VW and also
66.6 in the past.

I'd guess it would be the same as the Mk5/6 golf/jettas.

I believe you're correct. After posting I was told that
the new Beetle will share the platform and wheel hardwear
with the MK6 Jetta/Golf and that the hub centerbore is
57.1
