Tired of your aftermarket aluminum wheels? Looking for a cost-effective way to get back to that stock style? Look no further. These silver smoothies look great and won't break the bank. At 5.5" wide, these wheels are 1" wider than the original 15" wheels offered from the factory (see notes below for fitment). They are set up for a 5x205mm bolt pattern and have a 3 7/8" back spacing. These wheels accept the early ('54-65) dome style hubcaps used on Type 1s and 2s, as well as the "flat" caps found on '66-67 Type 1s. This wheel accommodates our 135R15 tires, 145R15 tires, or 165R15 tires, as well as some other 15" tire sizes.

These are the highest quality stock wheels available. They are perfect for most restorations. If you have a concours quality, show restoration, additional work and finishing may be required.

Hubcaps

These wheels work best with the dome-style, 1954-1965 VW hubcaps and come with the hubcap clips pre-installed.

1966-1967 Flat Style Hubcap Warning

If you have a 1966 or 1967 beetle and you want the flat style, 1966-1967 hubcaps, you can make them fit, but it's gross and you probably shouldn't. The hub caps can be loose and there is a gap between edge of the hub cap and the wheel. To quote Sam Mebane "Have I done it? Yes. Did I like it? No." We will not accept return on these wheels due to the fact that they don't fit the flat style 1966-1967 hubcaps. When in doubt, get the 1954-1965 dome style hubcaps.

The 1966-1967 flat style hub caps will not fit on 1965 and earlier Beetles because the hubcap will hit the axle nut.
