Hehe,
Thanks Baron.
Got clued up on it the other day thanks to Watercool.
205 PCD is Fuchs, right?
Cheers, N.

Nope - Fuchs, and any other Porsche wheel is 5 x 130, 205 is standard 5-stud Beetle.
(Type 4s are 4 x 130

Aaah, OK.
I spoke to Dave Rowley yesterday, because these F'ing Randars are starting to get costly...
They are 205, and I need to machine special stud disc hubs to fit them...they have a very odd mount on them. Check the pics I sent you...more specifically, those square-base wheelnuts.
Thanks, N.
