Afternoon These alloys were on my Mk1 when I bought it. I have never seen a set before and wondered if any of you lot have? I was thinking about refurbing them and saving them for something. They are made by Wolfrace, they are 14 inch and 4x100. Cheers Sammo

They look very late 80s/early 90s. Love them!

Wolfrace Turbos; they were made in the 80's for all of the popular makes.

There is some old codger round my way who rocks about in a pretty scabby E32 735 wearing a set of those rims, they look like 15's and a bit lost on such a large car.
Although imo they are quite good looking wheels, definitely worth saving. Would look ace on a mega slammed bread van polo ;D

I'm pretty sure they're Wolfrace Thrust.

thrust rings a bell.
At one stage it seemed just about everything had a set on. Always preferred them with out the centre cap

I missed a set of those on eBay only a few days ago described as "kit car wheels" or some such.
I'd be v. tempted for my Passat if you are selling them.
I have a set of almost identical wheels I thought were Wolfrace Thurst or Wolfrace Kosmic which were on my white Mk3 Cortina but closer examination of the markings to rear suggests they are a RG Design model 21
There were a few variations of that style c. late 80s early 90s.
I still have mine as they seem to attract time wasters like nothing else when ever I try sell them. They are about a 4x108/4.25" ET35 IIRC 7x15 with good 205/50 tyres and I'd like £125 for them.
