Default What is your opinions on hte Hottest Rims ever?

Oka,y time for all you style loving people to post your opinion of what is your Favorite rim of all time. Preferrably for a vw, but anything will do.

Personally, i know it's only a 4-lug rim, imho, the best looking rim ever is the Borbet Type-A.

These are my choice. I just wish I could find a set to fit a new beetle.

I think the TSW Trophy (discontinued)looks great on the NB/NBC. Too bad they don't stand up well to post storm potholes.

My all time favorite TSW Trophys. These wheels just look like they were designed for the NB.

I have to agree with everyone that said TSWs. I couldn't imagine any other rim on my NB.

These are my faves. My dad had them on his 1972 Pontiac Grand Prix when I was a kid. Could you imagine these on a NB?
