Yes they do. I had this verified from DPE before I tried. They don't really look that good. I bought some chrome covers, but have not put them on yet as they are a little on the big sid and fill up the lug hole too much.

Depends if you have spacers.... But usually if the offset isn't too great, they should fit...

What has the experience been with DPE wheels? I don't mean cosmetically, I mean performance wise. I like them for my 2011 TTS, but the web is filled with bad news about these guys. They sound very junior, and sound as if the company is comrised of two guys with phones and a desk in Cali.

So I actually am trying to sell them as it rains often here and it's the worst and unexpected surprise I've had from a set of wheels. I have heard that a lot of the 3 pcs rims have the same design as to strengthen the outer wheel hub. Sorry guys but I don't want you to run into the same problems.
