Hi does anyone out there have original sprint star wheels, like the ones below, they would consider selling?
yep Vintage has a set 4 sale only in black at the moment 02-9789-1777 if yr interested 15 x 4.5 "
If you're interested, I'm selling a set of KPZ's,definitely nicer and rarer. Needs chroming(or painted) though if you want the same look as the set on the Cabrio. call me if interested on 0434962295 AL. The last photo is the actual set for sale, all are 15x5.5, you simply replace a pair of the outers if you wish to run skinnier wheels at the front with standard VW rims. Only two sets in Oz unlike the Sprintstars😂

Dopey me! The wheels I posted a picture of are 4 stud. My car has 5 stud wheels. I'll have to come up with a new game plan on wheels.

well the 5 stud Sprints ( origional ) are even harder to find
I can only suggest the Samba or Ebay last set went for 2K
Think I'll try to find some Raders. See pics below. Does anyone know what size these came in? The pics below are of Empi Raders. They were also produced by Sears & Roebucks, but they look a little different.
the ones on the bus are after market and look like 17"
the one in the first pic loks origional they came in 15 x 4.5 or 5.5 as thats all thats will fit under stock guards
there are 2 or 3 types that look very similar and have a similar name like rander and rader
So be wear also the origional wheels made from alloy or that have alloy involved like the spokes are suseptiable to corrosion and could be damaged beond repair
so you may be better off with with a full steel wheels like the Sprints or and new aftermarket copy of the randers
