Anyone have a picture of a bug with this type of wheel?

How about an opinion?

Its the 70 - 80 style

I have six in my shed and a little curious how they would look.
(I know I should take them out and set them up Laughing )

The offsets that they have listed are those Possitive or negative? Confused If possitive, then the ones with the 50 offset would probable be best.

if you have a problem with the way things are moderated how about sending a PM to the person who locked the thread instead of this useless banter.


Titles such as
"chevy wheels on a 70 bug"
is a fine topic to discuss in the forum


Yes i do know you can change bolt patterns, you can fit any wheels you want on your VW, I have listed the important vw/porsche related bolt circles as a sticky up top, anything else I feel are not important to be listed here.

want to put ricer wheels on your bug, start a thread let the discussion happen.

your links are great information but anyone can google to find that info if needed

one of the rules of this forum is
Anything NON VW related will be deleted.

it did not pertain to a individual Vw/porsche then it gets locked or deleted

I'm putting Chevy bolt patterned wheels on my '62. I'm 75% VW and 25% Chevy oriented so I had to put something on it GM related. It's getting 4 wheel disc drilled for the aforementioned. I want something different than any of the wide 5 wheels on the market. It'll cost more but to each his own. I really like the idea of Rally wheels but have not seen any that are narrow enough for a VW.

Don't be afraid to step outside of the norm. It's whatever you like and not what others like.
