    DUMB ROOKIE MISTAKE

    Well I've been around VW's for a lot of years but just made the dumbest f$%&ing mistake. :oops: I have a 1969 RHD Lowie (so wide 5 x 205 stud) and I just bought a new set of Radar 15" rims. I take them into a mate. New tyres fitted. Fronts go on... then the shit hits the fan! The rears don't...
