Welcome Bill.
You can probably still buy VW 15” steel wheels that will fit. Back in the day they were popular as they looked OEM but were slightly larger for aesthetics and would fit over larger brake conversions.
You might be able to source genuine OEM 14” wheels still too, be they alloy or steel.
There will be people with decent second hand sets stored away at the back of their garages so a wanted advert here, on social media forums and wherever owners of classic water cooled VW’s hang out.
You’d be surprised what people have tucked away forgotten about.
When I moved house about 4 years ago I found a single 14” GTI steel wheel, a pair of mk2 Golf rear light housings (I’d upgraded my GTI’s lights to half tint), some orange side repeaters and even a DIN radio blank (genuine VW) as once upon a time Golfs didn’t even come with a radio as standard. Lord knows what happened to it all.
Shake a few trees and you’ll maybe unearth some interesting bits!
