Hello there, First time posting on water cooled,usually on aircooled. this question is about my daughters new beetle. Does anyone know offhand if any new beetle models ever came from factory with those white daisy wheels with the yellow caps on them? I'm trying to find a couple of center caps for them and I found some on a website but it suggests that they are from a factory wheel by the way its described. If there were factory wheels offered,would these caps fit aftermarket Miglia wheels?They look the same from the front,but no backside picture. Any help or suggestions would be appreciated. Thanks.

The daisy wheels are not from VW. Find some place that still sells them and see if an extra cap can be ordered. TireRack sold them several years back; maybe they still do. The name Miglia does ring a bell but I won't swear to it.
