I'd say go for the Deep dish 5 star mags.... Just something about a 5 star on a Bug....

I"m also leaning to the 5 star mag... damn those will look nice. I can just imagine those with a set of 10" wide M&H tilres at the back. That's enough to give you a hard on :)

I think they are from a import beetle. Originally had 4x 130pcd . We drilled them to suite the porsche discs and wheels.
