Yeah only in 15"!
But you could use some 165/50R15 tires. Total diameter will be smaller than a regular tire on 14" wheel!

Check that:
http://www.serial-kombi.com/volkswagen-accessory-wheel-and-equipment-N11-N2172.html

215 euros the chromed EMPI one, or 160 euros in shiny black.
The BRM look good also.

The 5x112 should easier to adapt than the 5x205.
I know somebody who can modify drums and hub in 5 studs.

He made the modification on this one, there is no adapter:

personally i think Empi & BRM's are played out. These are a nicer alternative:

I do like Empi sprint stars:

Those Radars are the best, If I would not be student I would buy them for
my AzuSuper. I also made 3d design of those wheels for 2cv 3 bolt pattern.

I'm adapting a set of drums and hubs to 4 stud, I've got a set of Sprintstars for my pick-up project. It isn't easy to adapt hem, because the stusd are a lot closer to eachoter. and in the drum they will be only half in the drum and half in the hub, so a spacer ring is needed to make it work. An advantage is ofcourse, when made, all 4 stud beetle rims will fit (might need a spacer)

Sorry but I think all these smart wheels are guite ugly. Some of them (not this Confused )
would go in tuning style 2cv. I would rather run whit original 2cv or GS rims than
those. All those VW alloys (empi etc.) are way cooler design.

Nice!
They are 14" wheels, they would be good for a channelled car..

Never seen those before!

Hi !

I saw a yellow 2CV with these rims at the french national meeting in Berck in 2005. Sorry, I have no picture ok the car.



Me too : I like these ; the look is great, but I prefer using 15'' wheels
