I found out what they were at Volksworld but now I have forgotten..

Do they come in from Japan??

Lush bus by the way :mrgreen:

Wow wee they aren't cheap are they?

My wallet sighed when it found out they are out of stock!

They are on my wish list.......

Will settle for my polished Plymouth hub caps for now!

They are great wheels, but they come via the US.

They come with a good offset too.

I've had them on my bus for about 3 years now.

They are known as 'Speedmaster' now but back in the 60's' if not by the same manufacturer but I'm damn sure the same design was known as 'Hallibrand' and was not unique to VWs. Seen them on all GM, Mopar etc.
Look cracking in any colour/polish combination. When my numbers come up!!!!!!!

Couldn't agree more Pete, Halibrand originally made them as spindle mounts in the 50's and they sometimes get called kidney bean wheels. A company called American Racing wheels make a replica called the Salt Flat special which North Hants Tyres stock for american stud patterns.

Hi!

The speedmasters are one of my favourite wheels, but alas my wallet is also empty! V. Jealous of Faux's bus.

A nice set of slot mags are a close second, but not the real deal.

P.S If you get rid of your hub caps - give me a shout, I'll look after them for you!

Cheers!
