Does anyone have images of Empi 8/Minilite style wheels that have been modernised to larger sizes on a car? I'm considering a classic look, but in a larger fitment on my 2001 Beetle but haven't seen wheels in this style on anything. Like this, but larger....  ...on one of these  But happy to see a modern interpretation on anything TBH. |

That's sweet. I'm currently rolling on 18"x8.5J Projektzwo P1's
Looking at the second image (Photoshop?) I think changing the wheel colour might make a huge difference.
Silver on silver is uber dull.

Just realised it's your car Dale. Love your car :-)
Aron said he met you and talked NB's.
Perhaps I need to come and get your ideas too?

I keep thinking about putting the new versions of the Fuchs or the BRM on my audi, especially as now come in 17" with 5x112 PCD..

 I always wanted to fit a set of these minilite inspired wheels(above) to my old BMW 2002 touring I have a suspicion it would have been awesome (or rubbish) Not my car, mine got scrapped a long time ago before it was finished. But use your imagination, this colour and slammed with the above wheels.  edit** Like a budget, larger diameter, more tucked version of this  |

I looked at those but the fitment wasn't suited. I've since found these and think they fit the bill nicely (if expensively)   |
