Umm what are they 60mm dropp?

yeah 60 all round

mmm do like those wheels but they dont really have a patch on the old ones. Did the old ones keep scrubbing is that why you got rid of them? Have yoou sold them? Where did you find these wheels???

the rears caught the very edge of the plastic arch trim if i had any weight in the back. it started to do my head in to be honest plus i have scraped one wheel along a curb so am planning on a refurb with polished lips.

i think i am going to hang onto them untill i can get another pair of fronts.

gareth has offered to buy another full set and for all 4 rears to go on the beetle but i dont think they'll fit the front too well.

do you fancy them?

Would love to have them off you but as i am planning on lowering mine then i think i would end up with the same problem. Thanks anyway. :smiley: Still need to find some decent wheels fr mine for the summer, can you keep an eye s you and gareth seem to be very good at sourcing these types of wheels, not bothered by condition as will refurb them is needed.  :smiley:

kai give me a call about the bbs's - i've lost your number transferring to a new mobile.

no tyres but i could do a p.x. deal on your wheels and you keep your tyres. you'll need spacers 10mm plus for them to sit right on a mk2 though

Just caught up with yours...... Those new wheels look massive on your car and i see what you mean about the rear, looks like you're carrying a heavy load??....  Car still looks mint though from how how it all started!  :cool:

Cheers. I keep getting a downer on the car as the body in particular is far from mint but then i also forget what i started with and how much i've spent.
