Didn't like to mention the fuch patterns ones, but yeah they're wrong too....

Also dislike the bubble fronts, but I'm told it's because I'm gay. IMHO the bubbles look like a 15" ashtray bolted on the car ;)

the bubbles are fine (just look at Lee Gong's 65...) but all the others look a bit like frisbees stuck on the car.  :-\

Yep. I had a pair for the back of the blue car for a while that I put drag radials on when the car was still four lug.

My opinion?

They look like pie pans.

so ....  they're overly shiney pie-can shaped frisbies , that a gay bloke might use as an ahtray .
 from a psycology view-point , interesting           .         VERY interesting .....

:D

i like the pie pan look, also the bubble wheels, but yeah, a wide 5 car can pull the look off better!

maybe i should stick with my split rim empi's...

If I had a 4 lug car, I think it would be genyoooowine Empi 8's, detailed Porsche 2.0 litres or Fuchs all the way.

And I'm not gay! Just my fellow VW 'friends' tell me I am when I say things like I don't like Erco bubbles  ;D
