I just picked up a 1976 VW with a 1776 engine that is being turned into a Baja. The wheels on it are 14" x 7" with the 4 lug 130mm bolt pattern. Can someone identify these wheels?

Image may have been reduced in size. Click image to view fullscreen.


I'll probably try finding some different wheels for the Baja so I can run larger tires. Tire selections with these are kind of limited as far as off-road type.

BTW, that's not me in the picture, that's my 21 year old son. He and his wife are both almost excited as me about the car.

Thanks

They look kinda like American Racing Vectors. Have you looked on the inboard side of the wheel?

I've looked at one, but need to clean it up some. Looks like you nailed it on the ID though. Thanks for the help.

I'd thought about selling them, but since they're the only wheels I have for it and I want to drive it in the next week or so, might as well run 'em.
