Don't know if this will add any more information to what you already know. I have a set of alloy wheels on my '69 Bugwith the words "Shelby Cobra" and the rim size cast into the back. These wheels are five spoke, semi-polished wheels. I do not have matching center caps. I have seen a few sets on beetles in the magazines and sets on older US made cars (ie vans, mustangs, a Pinto, etc...).
Best I can figure, these were made in the late sixties or early seventies. Most wheels I have seen have been kinda narrow (7" at most). Mine are 13x6 and 14x9.5 (a real pain to find decent tires for). I have asked a lot of people and nobody seems to know about these wheels.
