As above I am looking for a set of these with tyres for my 67 Beetle.
Preferably around Tweed, Gold Coast or Brisi for pick up as otherwise freight is going to kill me.
I have up to $800 to spend.
My number is 0427899885.

Cheers

I'm sure I saw some mangels the other day, either EBay or Gumtree - they were close too I think.

Will have a look and post a link if I find it

Couldn't find it. There's s set of chromed type 3 wide 5's near Logan - maybe that's what I saw

Yeah I saw those ones. They are modified ROH rims that he wants $450 for (only 2 of them). They don't have the clips for the Hub Caps, and they have inner dimples that won't allow the old style Hub Cap to go on anyway.

Yep Type3 wheels so type3 only caps would be needed. Didn't notice that was only for two - even for 4 it's steep!
