What kind of wheelsare you looking for????? If you want VW bolt pattern wheels look at CIP1.com, anything else look anywhere you want.

If you do go to the CIP1 website, make sure you look in the Baja & Buggy section for wheels, otherwise, you will only find narrow, same size front & rear wheels.  You want wider stuff on the back of a buggy.  Tom

Believe it or not JCWhitney has a decent selection of affordable VW patterned wheels.

Samba Classifieds?
I usually look there semi-daily - never know what kinds of cool wheels will turn up!  and I'm not in the market for wheels (though if the right set of Gotties turned up......)  :-)

Jeff,

Like these Gotti knock offs.....



I agree that they will look good on "a"...OK...."my" Deserter.

I like 'em Jeff!
Actually I prefer an earlier version of that wheel - it had the lugs between the spokes instead of in them.  Seem to be very rare these days and tough to find.

You're right though - those will look fantastic on the GT!

Here's the wheel I'm referring to: (don't exactly know why - I LOVE these wheels!)



Would look smashing on a buggy!
