any side view of the whole car with those wheels? I like them, modern, but understated. Probably pretty cheap too?

Yeah, they're pretty cheap as they're just a cast wheel and not hip enough for most Porsche owners  The tires cost more than the wheels I think.

man, that looks good! Hey, their loss. That sounds like a good performance wheel for a bug without breaking the bank.
I like big wheels, but I hate "tuner wheels" on bugs. Twists obviously look great, but bring big bucks.

What sizes are they and what tires?
Adapters?
I bought 6/8"s and got 6/7"s. And I'm wondering if I should push for the exchange for 8"s ones

Here is a pic of D90s on my 67 from the early 90s. I had the paint striped off so they could be polished but the actual alloy surface was so porous they would not polish to a mirror finish....ended up having them chrome plated. Upgraded later to 17” and sold these to a friend with a chop top.
This car is now sitting on 18” Porsche wheels.
