F/S FEELER: 16" New Beetle Aluminum Wheels.

[NYBugman]

I've got my stock 16" New Beetle aluminum wheels that I don't need anymore since I will be running 17" Long Beaches for winter.

They are rough right now but I will be refinishing them to like new condition. The first owner put a bend in one of the wheels that was repaired. I have all 4 centercaps. Tires are 205-55-16 Michelin Energy MXV4's with good life left. Sale does not have to include tires.

The reason I am putting up a feeler is because I want to know if there would be people who want to buy them if they were painted a color other than a stock-like silver. I'm talking black, bronze, gold, gray, etc etc. I am thinking about a hammer-finished silver right now.

No idea on price yet.

Hi! how much do you want for them? I would love them in the stock VW silver.

It's a feeler, they're not technically for sale yet. This is just to test the waters.

I have 2 silvers that I prefer to use. One is a little brighter and one is a little darker than the stock silver. Take it from a person who has refinished a LOT of wheels of all makes and models, matching the factory wheel color is VERY hard to do. Unless you can get the paint code from VWoA, you're never going to get a 100% match.
