WTB Painted 15x5.5 4 stud painted Beetle rims in BNE
Hi,
Following my conversion to IRS and a Disk K&LP front end, I dropped off my rims to get some 15x195x65 tires fitted only to find that they are only
4.5 (standard width I have now learnt) and need at least 5'+ for 195s, so now I am looking for some stock style steel rims in 5 inches or greater
width. Would prefer BNE, but beggars can't be choosers. I don't really want to go for a narrower wheel, and don't want to go illegal by fitting
them to the 4.5s.
Cheers
Peter

Micks only has the chrome (yuk). I really just want to go the stock look and keep the price reasonable.

you could buy 2nd hand chrome mangels,dip them clean and paint to your colour.
try volksworld(Brs) for 2nd hand(chrome that you can drip clean) 5.5s or hold out on here and you might get some 6inches 4stud...this is what I did
and love em.
