for sale: 4x beetle drums, drilled for 4x100 pattern

[trev]

2x front drums
2x rear drums

drilled and tapped for 4x100 stud pattern, they will allow fitment of thousands of modern and not-so-modern styles of wheels. OEM and aftermarket intended for a lot of watercooled VWs, Hondas, Toyotas, Nissan, Rover, Opel etc etc etc. Really opens up the possibilities for alloy wheels for your bug beyond the old tried and tested EMPI and BRM wheels.

These will fit torsion bar beetles originally fitted with 4 stud wheels. The original stud pattern is still present so you can retain your stock spare wheel.

I'm asking €100, it cost €50 alone to have them drilled last time I had a set done. I will also throw in a set of 16x M12 wheel bolts which would cost you at least €20 from a scrap yard and three times as much to buy them new from Machine7 etc.

just to aid your imagination, all the wheels on these bugs are 4x100:

jebus, really? When I had mine done I brought them to the local precision engineer. He had them done a couple of days later for €50. That was back when I worked in Ennis.
Incidentally, the rear pair are from my own YIP767 bug and the front pair are from GZR560, the yellow and white bug as I've upgraded the fronts to 4x100 disks on that. So there's €25 worth of drilling on the rear hubs, €70 worth of drilling on the fronts and €20+ worth of wheel bolts included, that's €115 without counting the drums themselves.

Jaysus, someone take these from me before I put the price up!!!
