Honda and most FWD Toyotas are the same 4x100 bolt pattern as a VW, the problem is the hub center. VW uses a larger hub center than the other companies, and factory Honda wheels wont fit over it. If you find someone with aftermarket wheels they had on a Honda or Toyota though, they'll usually fit.

The wheels on that tan 4dr are 15" G60 Corrado steelies, or technically factory "snow" wheels. Those have been chromed and the centers painted black. The rears have also been widened to I believe 8".

Corrado steelies came in 2 flavors. Round holes and triangle holes. Round holes aren't available anymore, but traingle holes are at a cost of about $75 a corner without center caps. They come in silver only.
