lookin good are they all the same colour or is there a choice?

Excuse my ignorance but what does 36ET and 20ET mean? I assume it is a reference to the offset. I am considering a set of the V-forces for my Karman Ghia...which Et would suit?
Thanks!
Alex Holzl ·
Yep all the same colour.

Stephen: Yes the 36et and 20et means the offset of the wheel and im not sure what would be best for your ghia. Best to give us a ring and sort it out.

I have 36et at the front on a 75L bug with V Force struts and 20et on the rear
Still have to lower the rear a tad - but the 20et with 195 tyres sits nice and flush
hmmm dont think soo... dont you think 17'' fuchs would be better?
Alex Holzl ·
chrome nuts for radars too.
Alex Holzl ·
just keepin at the top..
VWCOOL ·
what is the centre bore/hole size of these?
AdrianH ·
What do they weigh ?
lil bug ·
What's the offset on the raders...?
NigeType3 ·
Someone put these on a type 3 for me and post the pics up so I can check the offset and look.
Its a bugger living the otherside of the country.
I know Im not asking to much
VWCOOL ·
would you like fries with that
Alex Holzl ·
Hahah the radars have a 20ET.
V-force spider wheels weigh 6.9kg
Alex Holzl ·
and the centre hole is 79mm diameter.
lugnuts ·

Alex Holzl ·

Hey Alex,
Perhaps you can explain to us ignoramus dragracers where the 20ET and 36ET is measured from
...you know,which one sticks out the most.
Regards, Dave Buteler(buthead!)
Alex Holzl ·
Hahaha. OK Butthead, Listen up!
The ET of a wheel is the same as saying the offset of a wheel. The 20ET wheel will fill the guard more where as the 36ET will be further inside the guard than the 20ET etc...

Just received my set of radars and I have to say how good they are in the flesh.
For the price I was expecting something a bit cheap and nasty but these are far from it! The finish is excellent and before I ordered the wheelsI thought the photos would do them justice, but upon receiving them I can say I'm very happy with the purchase! It will be a fair while before they go on the car but it will be the icing on the cake.
Thanks Alex and people if you want some flash looking 5 spokers, I dont think you could go past these for the money.
And no I wont receive any kickbacks for the raving endorsement!
Stealth ·
yeah, wide 5. should look good then. Anyone else got these on a bus??
Alex Holzl ·
im not sure but im sure someone would have a picture with them on?

Yes still have them on order but Rod doesn't have any available until mid July so plenty of time. If there were sets available I'd have considered these.
I have a lot of old VWA magazines and the website Bettleracing that advertised them is no longer online
