Anyone have a spare wide 5 wheel?
Its for my neighbours trailer so condition not that important, although it needs to be rust free.
The other wheel on his trailer is a 15'' van wheel, but two fourteen inch wheels will suffice also.

Johan,

I'd also be interested in one if you have one for sale. I only have one spare wheel between both cars.

Here is what I found in the loft:





Kieran53, if you are looking for just the one as a spare, I would suggest you go for the black powdercoated one (€25) also have an as new tire for it if you are interested.

Dirty1, the white ones seem to be all the same, are you looking for date stamps etc?

Glenn, yes all these are originals and the same offset, width. Did not spotted many date stamps to be honest (painted over) and those would not be visible anyway once hubcaps are put on.

Balls! I now figured out why I have so many of them: the oval cabrio project is currently on 356 wheels. So I'll need to keep 5 myself.

Rocky let me know your man wants that bus wheel or a beetle wheel or none of them.

Kieran, I'll put the black one aside for you.

After that I believe I have 4 (or 3 if Rocky takes a beetle one) left. Glenn's email came in before Dirty1 request so Glenn you interested in the ones left over?

If there is enough interest after these are gone, I'll find some in The Netherlands and try to get them over. But price will definitely be higher than €20 a piece.
