I saw a new beetle at the Brissy airport a few weeks ago that had a set of alloy mags that looked like the pre-'66 wheels, complete with dome hubcaps. I reckon these would be an awesome way of reducing the unsprung weight on a classic 4 stud beetle that i'm considering building (have to see what offsets/stud patterns are available).

Anyone seen these apart from me? Anyone know a source. If no one knows, I'll checkout the dealer.

Yeah i seen em
I think the pic above is more a 1 piece mag - what i saw was definitely a hub cap.
Looked good ....... but like all things i would HATE to see the price, especially as you would only get them out of spare parts.
