everything looks good except the Lugnut, the Jetta is 12mmx1.5b
and there is a different in the CB 57.1 and 56.1.

anyone know what CB stands for and if it's ok for a civic, oh and the difference between 1.5b and 1.5?

thanks

Center bore, the center bore of the vw is larger than the civic therefore the rim wont be hubcentric

Grab a hub centric ring if the wheel rattles, I guess?

The difference in the lugnut is that Honda's have studs on the car and lugnuts and VW's have holes in the car and bolts.

A 4 bolt VW wheel will definitely bolt up to a Honga Civic, but not the other way around. The wheel definitely won't be hub-centric though and while this is not dangerous, it can create minor vibration issues similar to a wheel imbalance. This is because the entire weight of the vehicle will be absorbed exclusively by the wheel studs, while a hub-centric wheel absorbs most of the weight on the hub, and the lugnuts just keep the rim pressed to the car. At speed this keeps everything more true and stable. Again, it isn't necessarly dangerous, but it can be annoying...

Also, there are no hub-centric rings available for steel wheels because of the hub design, they will not fit...
