I've bought these Audi A4 wheels cheap,will they suit a '71 Westy? Or should I sell them on?

IMHO it depends on the colour of the bus and the stance etc . I.e if its a classic colour the bus is painted in and you've got period accessories etc then No the wheels will look really out of place . But if the bus is painted a single modern colour say Audi TT grey etc then theres a fair chance they will look spot on

BUT i would seriously check the length of your wheel bolts etc before fitting as Im sure the Audi wheels are thicker than standard . contact Machine 7 for wheel bolts and advice .Also you may have to machine the centre of the wheels to clear the front and rear brake snouts . And with the bigger tyres etc its going to be heavier to park

Im with the Gadge on this.

On the Westy you have, I dont think it will look right. Just my opinion tho ...
 
I am with everyone else, sell them on, if they are 112pcd they'll fit late bays, T25/3's and T4's.
Then get some more period alloys with the profit :wink:
 
dont think the centre caps will fit on a bay or t25 but they will straight fit a t4 ,golf passat etc so will sell no probs someone on the t4 forum will snap these up
