WOW! you can never go wrong with 5 spoke wheels. in my opinion, they're the best looking wheels on our bugs, especially the Empi's.

you really need to post pics more often. your bug, and your photo skills are incredible!

I can't compliment your beetle enough!

I'd love to have those wheels with black spokes and a chrome lip....perfection!

BTW, are the wheel patterns on those wheels 5x100?

thanks guys and gals!
really appreciate it!

The rims are 5x100 - standard fit - were made by revolution i think, not made anymore, i got them second hand and they were already powder coated in cream, although i'd prefer black and polished lip i think - or colour coded spokes and polished lip!

cheers again!
