A word of warning..

Make sure you get VW 8 spokes and not the smaller 13" datsun 8 spokes, they look identical except the wheel bolt holes are slightly different.

This meant people tried to ovalise the wholes to get them to fit.

I have a set of 15's

I now have 3 center caps, and no mounting HW, and I have started the restoration process.

They were sourced off eBay and theSamba, one pair from each place...

They will go on my Ghia
