Now if only I could get the car to run worth a crap I would go buy some tires and enjoy this Autumn weather!

I actually bought them from someone on the Vortex out of SC. $200 shipped. (I only got $150 for the ugly wheels that were on the car, so
there was a little expense here. :? ) The guy who bought the old wheels gave me his Honda steelies that I should be able to get the other
$50 out of. :)

My old Rabbit had these wheels back in '86 -- see the caps?

A2 GTI!! I look for them every trip to the 'yards, not finding. See them on the road about once a month. Makes 'flakes almost look like a different wheel, huh?

It certainly does make them look like a different wheel. I have to honestly say I prefer them without the caps, but damn those caps are cool.
