Default Help needed to find 19" or 20" rims for my Beetle

Hi!

I'm looking to find some nice and big rims for my 2004 NB Turbo Convertible. On my last Beetle I had the TIS 02 20x7.5" ET42 with 225/30-20, they came on without any problems. But that car is sold (together with the wheels) so I'm looking for some new ones for my convertible.

Problem is, on the swedish market there is very few (or none...) rims available in 20x7.5". I had the TIS02 specially ordered from the US last time. So I want to check if some peolpe on this forum has experience and could recommend me something.

Prefably, I'd like 20", but last week I went to my dealer and tried on some Audi TT replica's in 19x8.5" ET35, but they where way to wide. Was protruding about 20 mm outside the front fender. Nice rim though, but not possible to fit.

Another rim I really like is the Audi A8 replica (see pictures below), available in 20x8" ET35, but I'm afraid it'll protrude as well. Anyone who knows somebody using this wheel on a NB?


If anyone has recommendations of 20" (or 19") rims (besides TIS...) that'll fit the NB without major mod's, I'd be very thankful. I checked some online stores located in the US, but none could fulfil my wishes.
