New member here. I just picked up a 1969 2000. I need to find 4 rims for this car. The previous owner put on oversize rims (ugly ones to boot). The are way to big. I would like a stock set or some panasports. Thanks.

OK, you can't just call them ugly, you have to document. So, you know what that means.......wait for it.......










We need pictures!

U-G-L-Y you ain't got no alibi, your (wheels are) just ugly

Actually they are pretty cool on a new bug... Ronal also makes sunflowers and I think that they used to make peace signs...

Ask and you shall receive. Behold the wheels I find ugly:

They are oversized as you can see here:

They will be for sale once I find some stock wheels or after markets I can handle.

Hey Dave.

I will see what I can figure out for shipping tomorrow. (playing hookie tomorrow to work more on hanging a body tub from the rafters in my garage over winter.)

They might look better without the knockoffs and just a regular center cap.
