Thanks.

FWIW, I got mine for $65 for the set. Yeah, it was a good deal, but $450 is pretty steep for wheels that need to be refinished. Just sayin'...
GL with the sale.

They were certainly the inspiration for me to find a pair. I guess maybe they'll go on the wagon this summer, since Sly isn't gonna be ready by then...Quote, originally posted by snowfox » I already have them... but I want more. They would look good on my MkII, too. 
Awww crud. Now owning a page on a zombie thread. *That* can't be good...

Laf. Mine weren't quite as cheap as snow's set, but considerably under $450. Is that Canadian currency?

I could even pay shipping...With only photos for reference, that's my best offer. When I bought mine, I bolted each one up and checked them one at a time with a dial indicator for runout and roundness before I parted with my dollars.

While the novelty of them saying fox racing is neat, in that style and size I would go with a set of TSW hockenheim's

I have a set of those, and in better shape too.
The wheels look alot like Hock's and just as old skool at this point. They are probbily 12 years old now.
Been on multiple Foxes and other VW's of ours. Currently they are sitting on our 89 Cabrio

if you want something cheap, 14" BMW BBS "basketweave" wheels fit this car perfect. They are also a dime a dozen. We use them for our race wheels and they look great IMO.
