I have searched and came across some bus photos with Porsche Space Savers, but don't see many bugs running them. Is there a reason I'm over looking? Or is it more that a person who went through the trouble of swapping to 5x130 does it to run Fuchs or other alloy wheels.

Trying to find a set for my '69 right now. Seems like you have to find the 80's ones or they're fairly expensive.
