wheels - what are they worth?

Hey, with out sounding like a dumb f**k can someone please summarise the options of wheels i have my my 62 beetle and what sorta money i can expect to pay...

thanks in advance to anyone with more of an idea than me. :thumb

If you want some bling wheels you can get some nice shiny Empi 5's. Will cost about $1400 ish (maybe a little less) ?????

I know prices will be a there abouts amount, but are we talking rim cost or rim and tyre package cost?

V force is selling awesome wheels for 188 each. Tyres could be up to200 each depending on what you want.

Hard question to answer, how much do you have to spend?

It can be cheap steelies or it can cost heaps.

Just rim cost, have no idea about tyres

If you go for the V Force type set up and put some good 2nd hand rubber on, you can have a REAL good set up for under $250 a wheel.
Because they are 15" you can get tyres cheap.
Richard can also do a real good deal on Yokies

It all depends on the look you are after. I would keep saving up and get the wheels and tyres that you want. It ends up cheaper than buying a set of cheaper wheels that you aren't completely happy with and trying to get the one's you want later on. I reckon for your car (the one in the avatar pic?), in my opinion, I would either go for a set of Empi 5 spokes or porsche 356 replica wheels without caps.

Yeah go 356s. They look awesome because they're so understated. (I'd go with caps though)

i know it cost me $1200 for my empi 8s and about another 1000 for tires but they rock they only break traction in the wet if im really trying with the 1600 but the 2L is a little easier to do it with.
