I want to change the wheels on my red bug. I highly dislike the steelies... mostly for safety issues.
I'm allowed to use these... what do you think?

We can only use period style wheels.

Have them on my beetle. You gonna have to modify the cap and they will touch the body when fully turned. But they look great.
