Steel Wheels.
« on: March 31, 2010, 09:13:40 AM »
Looking for a source for 15x7 or 8" steel wheels for VW 5 on 205 bolt pattern. Can anyone point me in the right direction?

Never mind,just bought 4 from Pacific Customs. I wanted to buy some BTR's with beadlock but the guys at BTR were out of stock and acted like it was no big deal . I guess I should just be willing to wait 4 or more weeks with no assurance of even then getting them.  THese are for the desert tires and I just bought non beadlock steel wheels . Not real pretty but they won't stay pretty anyway after a couple of tangles with big rocks and such. Get out the big hammer and keep on a goin'!

I ordered steel wheels once! And never again. Paid for another wheel in shipping the dam things. That was for only two wheels no tires.  3: 3: 3: 3:. At work when I set up with UPS it seems to be between $1 to $1.50 a pound. 25# rim * 4. $100.

I doubt you'll find any 5 on 205-8" wheels there. I'm damn sure there aren't any within 200 miles of here in stock.
