The 17s are a bit hard and a bit scrubby. Not unbearable but I'm toying with the idea of trading. Any interesting wheels out there for sale/ trade

16's are a nice compromise between ride quality and appearance on a bug. I have 16" steel wheels on my own bug.

If you're happy with the look of your wheels but wish to downsize to 16" I have a set of Compomotives that came on the yellow bug that I could be persuaded to part with. They're very similar to your 17" wheels...

Not so shabby. I'm happy with the style- I think they work with the colour very well. What width and offset are they, Trev? The 17's are a little proud and I think that's a lot of my problem.

So 185/ 45s or something like that?? They're very tempting. I must have a closer look at my own. Do yours protrude past the arches??

How much are you after for them, Trev? Where are you based?
