Has anyone seen these on a Beetle? I sent an email looking for pricing, but haven't received a response. Any other aluminum 356 wheels out there?

I hope you're sitting down when you get the reply. I seem to remember seeing them a few years ago and they weren't inexpensive.

If I remember correctly, they're in the $600 to $700 range....EACH.

$600-700 each isn't too bad, especially when compared to the Alex Bivens' reproduction of the Carrera wheel (Alloy center, steel outer)

I'm liking the Rudge accessory knock-off that Boyd offers
