Do these wheels ever sell anymore?
Been trying to off these so i can find some cups. set of 4 with good tires. Are they just undesired?

I like them but for the most part they are undesired.

You really should put those back on the Sewer, someone may fall in the hole. I personally never liked them. I'm kinda a Phone Dial Person myself. Plus they cover the nice big brakes that your trying to show off

Some VW people like them. In the VW circles they are refered to as "7 slots". The buyer will need adapters to run them since the VW has a 4X100 lug pattern. They are worth about $200 - $250 a set.

Does that guy have his wheels on the wrong end of his GTI or did he convert it to RWD?

They seem fine to me but I can't seem to get them cleaned and polished as I would like. Just a matter of taste but they are the stock wheel on my 86.

Mothers on a small orbital buffer and a dremel with a buffer for the slots and grooves make them look like mirrors.

They do look good on a Rabbit, on a 928 not so much IMHO.

I think it just depends if you are going for the retro look or for updated, modern or sporty.
For me, I'm going for retro. These rims are extremely strong and durable.

Mine are hand polished but i may buff them out and find a VW board.

I would actually like a set of them to mount slicks on for autocrossing but my wife is having surgery and i think it is going to break us for a while
how much are you asking for them?

I hate the manhole wheels. I hated them back in 1988 when I first became acquainted with the 928.

I hate some of the new wheels that look like they belong on a covered wagon.
