That is a really NICE looking Bug,
I think you should go for the Cup II's if you can afford them, I know there not cheap (I've just bought a set for my bus) but they have to be the best looking Porsche wheel around
I really like the colour you have used, what is it?

Were you at Vanfest in September? I'm sure I saw your bug

yeah hopefully gonna get the cup2s soon, i really need two sets though or replicas, as i want 7.5 inchers all round.
the colour is a commercial colour, i had a book of 100s of blues off my paint supplier and i spent most the weekend choosing the one i liked most.
yeah the bug was at vanfest i am in the MDF from birmingham and we attend as many shows as possible especially the local ones. Also got a pic of my bug in the volksworld vanfest show reveiw, well chuffed.
cheers for the comments

Genuine 7 1/2 inch CupII's are quite difficult to find, you might be better off looking for four 7inch or 7's for the front and I think you might be able to squeeze a pair of 9inch under stock rear arch's

That or at least a very similar colour to it is what I plan on using when I paint my bus.

I bet it looks even sweeter now with the Cup2's on. Did you have any probs fitting them? what sizes did you end up with? Did they fit ok at the front?

Looking forward to the new pix.
