17" or 18" wheels that fit the standard SuperBug stud pattern??
Or does it require the disk/drum conversion to another pattern???

Not so easy young fella! A lot of mags are cast to suit a particular stud pattern size range, or a particular number of studs. It's also virtually impossible to change the offset on one-piece mag wheels, so you need to start with something suitable, which drastically narrows the choice.

It requires drilling the wheel hubs, to suit the wheel stud pattern.

hey quickbug,

i've been looking to do the same thing... and from what i can see there isn't really any sure fire EASY method of doing it...

HOWEVER: Simmons have a range of beetle (vw) studded wheels that go all the way up to 18".... u can get 17s as well... even all the way down to 15...

they come in the standard VW stud pattern and are a pretty good looking wheel...

below are the wheels you can get in 17 and 18":




please note although they show 5 stud.. the also come in 4 stud standard vw pattern. (ie: pcd 4x130)

i was quoted $696 per wheel for the first style... not including rubber fitment etc.. but they are a damn good 3 piece wheel and will not rub, it's their specialty...

hope this help,
Yianni

oh btw... the $696 wass for EACH RIM... :cussing

696 per RIM!!
Without rubber?!?
Damn!

thats almost 3k for the rims alone!!
:O:O
They do look nice tho...
*snicker*

Thanks for the info guys!!

Then again thinking about it - 696 per rim as apposed to whole new brakes or redrilling hubs on top of the cost of a nice set of rims anyway...

Hmmmmmmmmmm doesnt seem so bad then.......

Oh yeah lol id thought about tyre cost.
And my suspensions already done

Richard at V-Force had some 17" fuchs, they were custom ones though, cost about 3k.
