VW 56mm Wheel Center Caps (2.2″) | Volkswagen Beetle, Jetta, Golf | Set of 4 | Part # 1J0601171
⚠️ CAUTION: Measure Before You Order
Pop one of your old caps out and measure across the front face. It should measure 56mm (2.2″). Please confirm your size before you order.
Google, ChatGPT, sizing charts, and other listings can be wrong for your specific wheel. Dealer special orders, trim changes, and previous owners swapping wheels all throw fitment off.
Treat the fitment chart below as a guide, not a guarantee.
A clean set of wheels loses its whole look the second one center cap goes missing. These VW 56mm wheel center caps are OEM Volkswagen caps sold as a set of four, so every wheel matches instead of you chasing down a single replacement. They measure 56mm (2.2″) across the face and carry part number 1J0601171, covering the Beetle, Jetta, and Golf model years listed below.
Each cap seats with snap-in clips that press in from the back of the wheel face. No tools, no adhesive, no trip to the shop. They fit both factory alloys and aftermarket wheels with open lug holes, and because they’re new, you won’t get scuffed takeoffs pulled off somebody’s old set.
What makes this one worth keeping in the garage:
- Set of 4 VW 56mm wheel center caps, so all four wheels match
- 56mm (2.2″) outer diameter
- Part # 1J0601171, direct fit for the Beetle, Jetta, and Golf years listed
- Works with factory alloys and aftermarket wheels with visible lug holes

VW 56mm Wheel Center Caps or 65mm: Which Size Do You Need?
Volkswagen used more than one center cap size. These VW 56mm wheel center caps measure 56mm (2.2″) across the front face. The part number on the back of your old cap is another quick way to confirm. If your caps measure 65mm (2.5″), see our VW 65mm wheel center caps instead.
How to Install VW 56mm Wheel Center Caps
- Pry the old cap out gently from the edge with a plastic trim tool so you don’t scratch the wheel.
- Wipe the center opening clean with a microfiber towel.
- Line up the clips with the opening.
- Press the cap in by hand until it snaps into place.
All four VW 56mm wheel center caps go in within a few minutes, and the new caps need no tools or adhesive.
Keep Your VW 56mm Wheel Center Caps Looking Clean
Brake dust builds up around the center of the wheel fast. On wash day, rinse the caps first, then dry them with a soft microfiber towel. A full set of VW 56mm wheel center caps also keeps every wheel matched, so one new cap doesn’t stand out next to three old ones.
