    What are my options? They dont have much dish, anyone know anything that will fit these? Ill be buying from the US so i need a good idea if they will fit before i ship them to england.

    Dont mind re-making clips etc.

    Sorry, 5 stud VW wheels on my 1949 ford pop.

    Cant decide on colour so was thinking about some kind of nice wheel cover/hub cap, full size rather than just a center domed cap and trim rings.

    Mooneyes sell some reasonable ones but i'd rather somethign oem, 50's or 60's.

    I think we may be thinking different things here.

    Yes, i have pre 67 wide 5 steels on my anglia.

    Rather than go with hub caps and trim rings i was thinking of running wheel covers, things like these

    Thing is, i can find lots of covers on US ebay but wont know if they will fit the VW wheel untill ive already shipped them over. Dont want to spend loads of money only to find they wont fit the wheel.

    VW wheels dont have alot of dish so if the cover fits back inside the wheel they nay not fit.

    I use to have Speedways full steel chrome 15 moon caps on my vw. Worked out great and they are cheap!:D
